The Fallen Lyrics

I met my fellow warriors in this great war
The good ones thought me how to grief right,
the bad ones showed me how to hate...
And in a way we all feared the same I think,
Grief, faith and fear maybe hate,
They were all the same to me...

They took me to a place when I could see,
The truth in you and me...
When we thought we could change the world,
For the good within you and me...

Glory feeds on tragedies that we hide away in the subjective truth of time,
Never to be told, for heroes we need to cover our wrongs,
But in time they will burn just the same,
When the smoke has cleared only death and dust... and pain!
And they never really told us until years after this,
Looking back... Evil wasn't evil for real...
But just a bad choice... That wasn't really a choice...
With blood red hate they wrote our names,
We were fighting on the wrong side...

They took me to a place where I could see,
The truth in you and me, when we were young and full of greed...
We thought that we could chance the world,
Did we trust to much on reason and buried away our dreams?
The world however couldn't see,
That there was no honesty,
And we did never really see,
The truth for you and me...

It died with you and me...
