Still You Stand
This is the night
This is the fight
They come at dawn
There's work to be done
They got the brutes
You got the truth
Way of the gun
History turns
I feel fear
You're already there
The tanks and the trucks
Are pushing their luck
The fields and the mud
Will swallow them whole
So far from truth
So far from home
Some show mercy
Some would never ask for it
Some grow to heroes
Some don't seem to grow at all
It's the grit in your mind
It's the stone in your hand
There are vultures in the sky
But you still kick them
It's the truth of a lie
It's the tyrants black eye
And you're up against the worst but still you stand
Still you stand
Truth is alive
And strong in your minds
Days of the brave
The times that bind
Innocent boys
Somewhere in their midst
Sent out to kill
Against their own will
Some of their worst
Can seem to be their very best
Some we all know
Are just plain tougher than the rest
It's the grit in your mind
It's the stone in your hand
There are vultures in the sky
But you still kick them
It's the truth of a lie
It's the tyrants black eye
And you're up against the worst but still you stand
Still you stand
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
Oh still you stand
There's work to be done
Oh you still stand
It's the grit in your mind
It's the stone in your hand
There are vultures in the sky
But you still kick them
It's the truth of a lie
It's the tyrants black eye
And you're up against the worst but still you stand
Still you stand
Sunflower
Reaching for the sky
Sunflower
Sunflower
Still you stand
Sunflower
Sunflower
You still stand
This is the fight
They come at dawn
There's work to be done
They got the brutes
You got the truth
Way of the gun
History turns
I feel fear
You're already there
The tanks and the trucks
Are pushing their luck
The fields and the mud
Will swallow them whole
So far from truth
So far from home
Some show mercy
Some would never ask for it
Some grow to heroes
Some don't seem to grow at all
It's the grit in your mind
It's the stone in your hand
There are vultures in the sky
But you still kick them
It's the truth of a lie
It's the tyrants black eye
And you're up against the worst but still you stand
Still you stand
Truth is alive
And strong in your minds
Days of the brave
The times that bind
Innocent boys
Somewhere in their midst
Sent out to kill
Against their own will
Some of their worst

It's the grit in your mind
It's the stone in your hand
There are vultures in the sky
But you still kick them
It's the truth of a lie
It's the tyrants black eye
And you're up against the worst but still you stand
Still you stand
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
There's work to be done
Oh still you stand
There's work to be done
Oh you still stand
It's the grit in your mind
It's the stone in your hand
There are vultures in the sky
But you still kick them
It's the truth of a lie
It's the tyrants black eye
And you're up against the worst but still you stand
Still you stand
Sunflower
Reaching for the sky
Sunflower
Sunflower
Still you stand
Sunflower
Sunflower
You still stand
