Monuments

And you came wide-eyed with reports
Of hostile forces gaining ground
Said you felt threatened by the night
But you'll stay and fight
You'll stay and fight
Up 'til the starlight takes your life

So pull the cannons to the front
Where splintered limbs
Stand their hollow ground
And we will melt our knives and guns
Rebuild them as
Monuments to our drowned-out sound

So I lit every torch I found
But tunnels blind and deaf ran on and on
And I still don't quite trust the light
But I'll make a deal, I'll compromise
As long as the morning keeps its side of the deal
But until then

We'll pull our cannons to the front
Where splintered limbs
Stand their hollow ground
And we will melt our knives and guns
Rebuild them as
Monuments to our drowned-out sound

We still stand our hollow ground
Stand our hollow ground
Stand our hollow ground
Stand our hollow ground
