The Deserter
It's time that we lament
All the ones that history forgets
You're more of a man than anyone understands
To lay your body in a world that's kind
Being gentle is only a strength
Where pure of heart could never be a crime
The meek and fearful we will defend
No ideology, morality, law or lord up above
Where cowardice is courage
So you have my love
Lay the sweetest wreath at the feet
Of the ones who have run
You're hated 'cause your good
More than anyone understood
The deserter who wouldn't murder
Let his heart illuminate
Rest in peace we know you're someone
Forgive us for we know not what we've done
To lay your body in a world that's kind
Being gentle is only a strength
Where pure of heart could never be a crime
The meek and fearful we will defend
No ideology, morality, law or lord up above
Where cowardice is courage
So you have my love
All the ones that history forgets
You're more of a man than anyone understands
To lay your body in a world that's kind
Being gentle is only a strength
Where pure of heart could never be a crime
The meek and fearful we will defend
No ideology, morality, law or lord up above
Where cowardice is courage
So you have my love
Lay the sweetest wreath at the feet
Of the ones who have run
You're hated 'cause your good
More than anyone understood
The deserter who wouldn't murder
Let his heart illuminate
Rest in peace we know you're someone
Forgive us for we know not what we've done
To lay your body in a world that's kind
Being gentle is only a strength
Where pure of heart could never be a crime
The meek and fearful we will defend
No ideology, morality, law or lord up above
Where cowardice is courage
So you have my love
