In our graves we do reside
Forgetting everything about our lives
Like seconds, years pass right before our eyes
They have broken us
Taken our rights
The heaven above has turned a blind eye
Long given up on finding strength inside
Somewhere still, a flag waves on
Whether or not the world is listening
We are the People and we will sing
Each one of us has a reason why we fight
The darkest night will end and hope will become our light
In this den of regret the air smells of damaged flesh
So many souls who long to forget
These docks have seen evil, Its cold and it's cruel
This life will steal the pride from you
Long given up on finding strength inside
Somewhere still, a flag waves on
Whether or not the world is listening
We are the People and we will sing
Each one of us has a reason why we fight
The darkest night will end and hope will become our light
This barricade won't fall, fall tonight we'll fight through the rain in the name of freedom
Every mans' birthright
Bullets piercing as we lose the fight
My brothers dying beside me I hear their desperate cries
God just tell me why
Why
Why
Why
WHY
Whether or not the world is listening
We are the People and we will sing
Each one of us has a reason why we fight
The darkest night will end and hope will become our light
Whether or not the world is listening
We are the People and we will sing
Each one of us has a reason why we fight
The darkest night will end and hope will become our light
Did you see them lying side by side?
