Story behind the song
Originally it was going to follow on from "SACRIFICE" but it also seems to fit the current pandemic situation
Lyrics
EPITAPH IT WAS WRITTEN IN STONE THEY HAD FOUND THEIR WAY HOME AND STILL ALL AROUND THEY SLEEP UNDER GROUND A SOLDIER A PILOT - A DOCTOR AND A NURSE A WRITER OF STORIES - DELIVERED IN VERSE AS WE WANDERED THROUGH THE GRAVEYARD I LOOKED TO THE SKY WAS ANYBODY UP THERE - WHO BOTHERED TO CRY SIX MEN PASSED IN SILENCE - THE COFFIN HELD UP HIGH MY FATHER JUST POINTED - AND UTTERED A SIGH (he said) THEREIN LIES A FIGHTER - A LEADER OF MEN A TEACHER A FACTORY WORKER THEY SHINE A LIGHT ONCE AGAIN THEY WERE BLACK AND WHITE AND YELLOW CONTRITE BUT STILL ALL AROUND THEY SLEEP UNDER GROUND.

Very evocative intro, brings into focus the melancholy theme and the sad undercurrent really nicely. Good representation of the current mood in much of the world today, well done the both of you. Stay safe. :)

Beautifully written, an angelic performance and a most fitting tribute to those that have passed in these times and before, whatever the situation that calls for valor, sacrifice or personalities taken from us all. Thank you for this beautiful piece of work!!! Wade

Great to hear another new song from you guys! Intriguing lyrics and a mix that is very pro sounding. Love the intro and instrumentation throughout and your signature vocals are riding perfectly on top of it all.
