" Art is beauty everlasting "


A million dreams below the desolate sky
Seeking waters of life upon barren streets so dry
Children line the streets holding back their angry cries
I'll be the one to step away, and hear their desperate plight

One man cannot stand alone
But his ideas have been the light that's shone
Through angry black clouds that symbolize
All the fear we've ever known

It's falling (it's falling)
They say there's nothing we can do
To stop this war
But an individuals dreams
Organized into many bodies
Resonates in the souls of many, many more

We stand by side to side
Candles flickering to illuminate our faces
Singing anthems of the betrayed and long forgotten

Fires ravaged our home
And bodies of loved ones adorned the streets
We speak for voiceless members of the abandoned
And downtrodden

It's falling (it's falling)
They say there's nothing we can do
To stop this war
But an individuals dreams
Organized into many bodies
Resonates in the souls of many, many more

Don't forget what you fought for
With everything you've ever loved
Everything you defend

We may lose the battle
But we'll win the war
In honor of our fallen bretheren

It's falling (it's falling)
They say there's nothing we can do
To stop this war
But an individuals dreams
Organized into many bodies
Resonates in the souls of many, many more
