[Verse 1: Jon Licht]
Oh well
Honor for all of the big and the small
Well the taller they stand, well the harder they fall
We live for today but we die for the next
With blood in our veins and the air in our chest
So we step into war with our hearts on the line
The dirt on our boots it shakes free over time
[Hook: Jon]
The music it fades
The violin slows
The darkness it rises
As the sun goes
[Verse 2: Jon]
Love is a distant aroma at best
A withering smile that's stuck deep in your vest
At night air it wraps its fingers around
Your body it shakes from the now distant sound
Of the sound of her voice
A sweet symphony
Played over and over Until' you are free
[Hook: Jon]
The music it fades
The violin slows
Darkness it rises
As the sun goes
[Chorus: Jon, Mary Elizabeth McGlynn]
Can you feel the new day rising?
Climbing up the East horizon
They can't hold us, now we'll fight through
Each and everyone will start new
[Verse 3: Jon]
Well we shall not stumble, no we shall not fall
We shall not crumble, no we shall stand tall
With d**h it will come as sure as the night
But we will not run, no we live but to fight
Oh with blood on our hands and dirt on our knee's
We'll tear at the ones who brought the disease
[Hook: Jon]
The music it fades
The violin slows
The darkness it rises
As the sun goes
[Chorus: Jon, Mary]
Can you feel the new day rising?
Climbing up the East horizon
They can't hold us, now we'll fight through
Each and everyone will start new
[Vocal Improvisation Bridge: Jon, Mary]
[Chorus: Jon, Mary]
Can you feel the new day rising?
Climbing up the East horizon
They can't hold us, now we'll fight through
Each and everyone will start new
