Elliott Brood - Their Will Lyrics

On waves we had come
They planted us on to these shores
Now we had never known
Such sites or the places that we now call home
We were given to these days
There was silence
Then came their calls
Urged us up and over for King and Country
And for Gods sake don't hesitate
Make the distance boys before they see
Then into their fire
We drove our bodies there
Then came the sounds
Cries of pain emerged from within the clouds
Our feet they fell apart
Our wills soon followed
As did our hearts
With head in hand we traced our paths
On the remnants of their worn out maps

By the time
We had turned around
The tides had come
Reclaimed the broken ground

The wounds we had
We all knew they'd never heal
And the ones we lost
And the ones we couldn't save
