POETS OF THE FALL lyrics : "War"

Do you remember standing on a broken field
White crippled wings beating the sky
The harbingers of war with their nature revealed

And our chances flowing by

If I can let the memory heal

I will remember you with me on that field

When I thought that I fought this war alone

You were there by my side on the frontline
When I thought that I fought without a cause
You gave me a reason to try


Turn the page I need to see something new
For now my innocence is torn

We cannot linger on this stunted view
Like rabid dogs of war


I will let the memory heal
I will remember you with me on that field


When I thought that I fought this war alone
You were there by my side on the frontline
And we fought to believe the impossible

When I thought that I fought this war alone
We were one with our destinies entwined
When I thought that I fought without a cause

You gave me the reason why

With no-one wearing their real face

It's a whiteout of emotion
And I've only got my brittle bones to break the fall


When the love in letters fade
It's like moving in slow motion
And we're already too late if we arrive at all


And then we're caught up in the arms race
An involuntary addiction

And we're shedding every value our mothers taught

So will you please show me your real face

Draw the line in the horizon
Cos I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought


When I thought that I fought this war alone...
