Lyrics
And so it begins - that some things last forever This spirit endure - the courage that failed them never So let valor erase - the lies that sought to deceive them And so for now - I see it very clearly A soldier in time - knows just what he holds dearly And so it became - that time was not on their side And yet it remains - until we breathe our breath Like tears in rain - there is no shame in your death
