lyrics

The rider racing towards us
One by land, two by sea
Never thought of what the outcome would be
Never thought this could happen to me

The redcoats take our fortress
We wash our weapons in the sea
Never thought of what the outcome could be
Never thought that you would die next to me

Our weapons
We don't need them anymore
We will beat out ploughshares
From all our useless swords

• • •

Woke up
Thought I heard your name
Was December, rain still fell

Went out
Down the interstate
Thought I'd see your face as well

Called out
But it was too late
You should have seen how my face fell

Went out
In the drizzling rain
And I whispered to myself

Maybe someday I
Will call your name
We'll eat the dinners that we planned
But never ate
I'll finally see you there
Outside of the shadow of
Our father's shared last name

Maybe someday I
Won't miss my train
All the dinners that you made
But I never came
We'll eat from larger plates
Outside of the shadows that
Our fathers cast on us

O death: where is your sting?
This is no defeat
O death: where is your sting?
This is a release

O death: where's your sting?
I am not at peace
O death: where's your sting?

I admit defeat.
