Solitary

Set me aflame and cast me free
 Away, you wretched world of tethers
 Through the endless night and day
 I have never wanted more
 Always thought that I would stand
 Before the faceless name of justice
 Like some law unto myself
 Like a child of God again
 And if rain brings winds of change
 Let it rain on us forever
 I have no doubt from what I've seen
 That I have never wanted more
 With this line I'll mark the past
 As a symbol of beginning
 I have no doubt from what I've seen
 I have never wanted more

 In this picture stands a man
 Far away, alone and distant
 Like a solitary field
 In some nameless foreign land
 All around him points of light
 Start to dim and cease transmitting
 Shadows fell on futile games
 And then there was nothing more
 Through the screams of falling steel
 By the light of flares and wisdom
 All the doubts I could not face
 All this time I wanted more
 With a line I mark the past
 As a symbol of beginning
 To the gods whose names we've lost
 And the names who gave in vain
 And if rain brings winds of change
 Let it rain on us forever
 I have no doubt from what I've seen
 That I have never wanted more
 With this line I'll mark the past
 As a symbol of beginning
 I have no doubt from what I've seen
 That I have never wanted more

 Sever the line to the guilty past
 To the ones who brought us nothing
 Spoke of futures brave and proud
 And brought only hate and war
 ♪
 Line the roads with hollow praise
 Mark the land with paper statues
 Shadows fell on their futile ways
 And then there was nothing more
