I never belonged here with all of you
Time will take you all
A world that was never mine to see
Cast aside like a crippling black disease
Forgotten like a dream that’s never seen
I paid my dues, always thought I was the one
Time will take you all
Never knew the day was done
My memories fade with every breath I take
A wandering man’s name is never said
No war-cry from me, the civilized arise
No siren songs for me, the fortune teller lied
No sunset to see, the silence covers all
No fruits of my labour, the trees have all died
No heroes named after me, the monuments will fall
Fall to your knees!
Feel freezing rain wash away the pain
Scorched earth feeds all the parched and the weak
Those who care to remember my selfless ways
Will feel within themselves the power of change
The journey’s end caught up to my wretched life
Wrap their comforting claws in this lullaby
We watch as the colours change
As time takes us all away
But we will not go quietly!
We leave our mark which forever fears
Echoes turned to a thunderous rage
Our name alone is all that stays
(Solo: J. Wright)
Our salvation was always within us ‘till the end
Down deep under scars, hidden from the stars
Finally, time has come to take this all away
The songs we sing, the games you play
The wars we fight, and battles lost
The fallen tears, it’s all for naught
Even if the melody is fading, we will not go quietly
Even if the fear is paralyzing, we will not go quietly
Even if the end is satisfying, we will not go quietly
Even after history is written, we did not go quietly
Even after names are long forgotten, we did not go quietly
