As war is decided it lingers
Hangs with each new breaking heart
When comes the time to turn your back
Fighting against the urge to fight
Holding your hand with its loose fingers
Hope will tear the world apart
As fate will turn love into lack
Fear is making will into might
Before losing another second
Start remembering the day
When worrying will be over
No more running for peace of mind
Still assuming that peace may beckon
With higher power in play
No shame in seeking more cover
When life is cold as love is blind
Another scar and you're a warrior
One too much and it's all fine
Any more clues for no meaning
On what was once the form of ash
A fever with no healthy carrier
Striking those who stay in line
Lit once and forever burning
And yet all over in a flash
When lights go out shadows go figure
Tell a story of regrets
Of moments lost beneath the veil
To an unfair causality
In the background of the big picture
Used to making losing bets
Silence may share with us the tale
Of another casualty
