Long Forgotten Sons
Far from home on a road unknown
Where the vultures circle on winds that blow
From northern skies that haunt these waking moments
On shadows cast by the mountain range
On calloused soles we find our way
Through desperate eyes, we long for the horizon
While this sun is rising, yeah
We are the long forgotten sons
And daughters that don't belong to anyone
We are alone under this sun
We work to fix the work that you've undone
When cries for help go unanswered
And signal fires just burn and burn
We'll wonder if we're waiting here for nothing
'Cause our lips are sewn, our ears are filled
With the constant drone of the unfulfilled
But we'll never fall if we stand for something
We stand for something, yeah
Yeah, we are the long forgotten sons
And daughters that don't belong to anyone
And we are alone under this sun
We work to fix the work that you've undone
Don't fall, I see lights in the distance
They're not far away
Stand up 'cause the sky is turning gray
There's hope in these footsteps of persistence
So don't go astray, these lights get closer everyday
We are the long forgotten sons
Yeah, we are the long forgotten sons
We are the long forgotten sons
And daughters that don't belong to anyone
And we are alone under this sun
We work to fix the work that you've undone
What you've undone
Where the vultures circle on winds that blow
From northern skies that haunt these waking moments
On shadows cast by the mountain range
On calloused soles we find our way
Through desperate eyes, we long for the horizon
While this sun is rising, yeah
We are the long forgotten sons
And daughters that don't belong to anyone
We are alone under this sun
We work to fix the work that you've undone
When cries for help go unanswered
And signal fires just burn and burn
We'll wonder if we're waiting here for nothing
'Cause our lips are sewn, our ears are filled
With the constant drone of the unfulfilled
But we'll never fall if we stand for something
We stand for something, yeah
Yeah, we are the long forgotten sons
And daughters that don't belong to anyone
And we are alone under this sun
We work to fix the work that you've undone
Don't fall, I see lights in the distance
They're not far away
Stand up 'cause the sky is turning gray
There's hope in these footsteps of persistence
So don't go astray, these lights get closer everyday
We are the long forgotten sons
Yeah, we are the long forgotten sons
We are the long forgotten sons
And daughters that don't belong to anyone
And we are alone under this sun
We work to fix the work that you've undone
What you've undone
