Lyrics

[00:12.060] Do you remember standing on a broken field
[00:16.920] White crippled wings beating the sky
[00:21.670] The harbingers of war with their nature revealed
[00:26.670] And our chances flowing by
[00:32.950] If I can let the memory heal
[00:38.230] I will remember you with me on that field
[00:45.990] When I thought that I fought this war alone
[00:51.190] You were there by my side on the frontline
[00:56.390] When I thought that I fought without a cause
[01:03.030] You gave me a reason to try
[01:21.810] Turn the page I need to see something new
[01:26.880] For now my innocence is torn
[01:32.020] We cannot linger on this stunted view
[01:36.470] Like rabid dogs of war
[01:42.980] I will let the memory heal
[01:48.190] I will remember you with me on that field
[01:55.760] When I thought that I fought this war alone
[02:01.010] You were there by my side on the frontline
[02:06.460] And we fought to believe the impossible
[02:11.870] When I thought that I fought this war alone
[02:19.510] We were one with our destinies entwined
[02:24.650] When I thought that I fought without a cause
[02:31.230] You gave me the reason why
[03:05.430] With no-one wearing their real face
[03:07.950] It's a whiteout of emotion
[03:10.540] And I've only got my brittle bones to break the fall
[03:15.710] When the love in letters fade
[03:18.300] It's like moving in slow motion
[03:20.960] And we're already too late if we arrive at all
[03:26.670] And then we're caught up in the arms race
[03:29.190] An involuntary addiction
[03:31.630] And we're shedding every value our mothers taught
[03:36.890] So will you please show me your real face
[03:39.690] Draw the line in the horizon
[03:42.140] Cos I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought
[03:57.720] When I thought that I fought this war alone
[04:03.020] You were there by my side on the frontline
[04:08.310] And we fought to believe the impossible
[04:13.640] When I thought that I fought this war alone
[04:21.290] We were one with our destinies entwined
[04:26.560] When I thought that I fought without a cause
[04:33.600] You gave me the reason why
