Once Upon a Flatline - For the Wretched of the Earth

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?
