Fallen brother, he's a, a fallen husband |
|
He's about to be woken in his hospital bed |
|
He doesn't wanna rest, he just wants to run |
|
And he's tired of being told he's the lucky one |
|
King crusader, she's a new born leader |
|
But you should see her when her daughter's on the phone |
|
And she wipes the tears away, and she laces up |
|
Because there's still hell to pay and it sure feels like hell today, today |
|
And she says, you see these hands |
|
They're bruised and brown, they're yours alone |
|
Hold on, now we're still going down |
|
Hold on, now we're still fighting at home, the war at home |
|
Innocence behind his broken expression |
|
He's a child of mercy, he's our unlearned lesson |
|
And he's trying to wake up from this wilderness his world is now become |
|
He's reaching out to those he's running from |
|
And he says, you see these hands |
|
They're bruised and brown, they're yours alone |
|
Hold on, now we're still going down |
|
Hold on, now we're still fighting at it's |
|
One step forward, two steps back |
|
This is all who're marching |
|
One step forward, two steps back |
|
This is young at heart |
|
One step forward, two steps back |
|
Through the void of the silence |
|
You are not alone |
|
You see these hands |
|
They're million strong, they are yours now |
|
Hold on, now we're all going down |
|
Hold on, now we're all fighting at home, the war at home |
