The train tracks lead to an endless road
The briars and thorns make a heavy load

The stones are uneven the feet of travelers heavily scared
People trying to push through a gate with a heavy guard

They raise the flags and their voices
Cursing the rulers for their choices

The dogs bark and the people scream
We are all on the losing team

A call for freedom a call to fight
I call to end the dark and reunite the light

People stand and people fall
Those who stood strong and tall

Words falling on deaf ears
A path winding through the years

A silent scream to help the lost
But you turn and count the cost

You hurt the weak and beat the lame
But you should cry and turn in shame

You think you know what you stand for
But you stand behind a shut door

What do you want, what can I give
So that the ones I love can live

I only need water, I only need bread
But I only have my hope instead

You strike my head, and spit in my face
You need the thrill and love the chase

You don't know how strong we are
We are never close and never far

You can't always be strong
We lie in wait until the dawn

We raise our weapons and banners high
We must give it one last try

The statues fall into the dirt
A lesson taught a lesson learnt

The strength of our hearts and the sweat of our brows
Was a heavy cost, to bring a terrible ruler down
