lyrics

These arms weren't made for mistakes
You should know
You've seen them both break
And the strength that's left in my heart
Only beats pain
When danger is dark
Still I'd risk it's blood for you
We've never seen
A blade flash twice
Nor felt the gleam
Of red moonlight
But I believe
If bullets bite
You can trust on me to fight

It's not hard to see
Men have only
Ever grown weak
All plagued with unease
We've not found a cause for which we'll bleed

Not the sigh, nor the parching of
The weathered throats, the silent tongues
Not the cry for the meager right
To take the hand of your chosen love
Not the dance to a world unsaved
Compelled to drown in an oily grave
No see, we are raised
To let this sorrow fade
It is our apathy that endures the blame

We've never seen
A blade flash twice
Nor felt the gleam
Of red moonlight
But I must believe
When bullets fly
We will stand with all our might
Can I count on you to fight?
Can I count on you to fight?
