Embers of the Fallen

I want to ask you if I may
How much is a life worth
In this war you wage?

Do you fight for freedom?
Or do you fight this war
To kill without a reason
Like your heroes did before

The world stays silent
What have we become?
Ignoring the violence
Selecting what we want to know

They arise
Into afterlife
Forgotten and forsaken
They wouldn't subside

Sacrificed
Denied of their lives
The embers of the fallen
Are burning tonight

I have to show you what I mean
Let me open your eyes
Take a look at what you see

It's the pain, blood, the power game
The list of countless names
One life, one soul, one family
Everyday, still we don't see

The world stays silent
(The world stays silent)
What have we become?
Ignoring the violence
(Ignoring the violence)
Selecting what we want to know

They arise
Into afterlife
Forgotten and forsaken
They wouldn't subside

Sacrificed
Denied of their lives
The embers of the fallen
Are burning tonight

How much more do you want to obtain?
Abuse your might for your personal gain
You carried out this bloodshed
And all you see, is this hellborn fire
You unleashed

You earned yourself the title of the devil
The hate you sow will bring you to your knees

You earned yourself the title of the devil
The hate you sow will bring you to your knees again

They arise
Into afterlife
Forgotten and forsaken
They wouldn't subside

Sacrificed
Denied of their lives
The embers of the fallen

They arise
Into afterlife
Forgotten and forsaken
They wouldn't subside

Sacrificed
Denied of their lives
The embers of the fallen
Are burning tonight

Awareness is dead
Only faked interest
No guilt, no shame
That's what will get us all
Erased
