Lyrics
Morning
All music and lyrics by Victor Snow
Clear blue skies and a cold northern breeze
Outside these walls is death and inside disease
They must have us 20-1
It would take a miracle, not empirical, near impossible
---------------------------------------------------
Still I have to believe this morning,
Is a dawning not a falling
In this fortress
We will never ever go to our knees
------------------------------------------------
How it started is more than I know
Such is the purview of gods and the kings they bestow
But please tell me why do we fail?
Have we lost favor of our creator are we forsaken, no no
---------------------------------------------
I have to believe this morning,
Is a dawning not a falling
In this fortress
We will never ever go to our knees
------------------------------------------------
We have manned these parapets day after day after day
Taken arrows and fire and more things that I don't want to say.
It's starting to crumble, oh I fear that it's starting to fall
But it won't matter much when there's no one left to stand here at all
------------------------------------
The winners remain to write the stories
The losers erased from the pages of time, but
Still a few children play, thin and pale, but hopeful eyes
That's what we're fighting for, to live another day
------------------------------------------
No strength left, just a will to survive.
Can't see through the smoke with this blood in my eyes
Through clashes of steel, there's a sound
Declaring victory, or a cavalry, with delivery,
-------------------------------------------
I have to believe this morning,
Is a dawning not a falling
In this fortress
We will never ever go to our knees
------------------------------------------------
