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...
