The days have grown long And the nights have grown cold We once were young and strong Now we're weakened and old We came to this land In search of freedom And put in its place A new breed of kingdom Alive, but we're dying We're silent, but we're crying out in pain Been waiting for a savior to rise again Once this was a place for heroes Now they're all just counting zeros, and my life Is nothing more than a line in the sand They put out our eyes With visions of grandeur And cut out our tongues With the bitter taste of failure They covered our ears With the promise of freedom And we ransomed our souls For Gods we believed in Alive, but we're dying We're silent, but we're crying out in pain Been waiting for a savior to rise again Once this was a place for heroes Now they're all just counting zeros, and my life Is nothing more than a line in the sand Now I ask you, can we stand up as one And go after our freedom Rectify the façade Of a free nation Destroy the golden shackles Awaiting our children Alive, but we're dying We're silent, but we're crying out in pain Been waiting for a savior to rise again Once this was a place for heroes Now they're all just counting zeros, and my life Is nothing more than a line in the sand
