The stars are not out tonight<br />
The mood glows dull<br />
Slung low in the sky<br />
It is a foolish thing to waste<br />
The mysteries<br />
Of the night<br />
It is a tragedy to lose<br />
The one thing you thought<br />
Might begin<br />
That revolution<br />
Within your heart<br />
It is crazy to lose<br />
A golden chance<br />
Yet a chance is all<br />
That remains<br />
For we are built<br />
On hopes<br />
And restless dreams<br />
So weak are the hearts of man<br />
What is destined to be?<br />
What is the price to replace the stars<br />
Into their darkened canopy?<br />
It is far more than I can afford<br />
Yet loan me your heart<br />
And perhaps we can<br />
Find a way<br />
To mend the holes<br />
That scar the night<br />
Let me wish<br />
Let me cry<br />
Let yourself return to me<br />
To end what never began<br />
To begin a different ending<br />
To finish the story<br />
Under the stars<br />
O’ victory, sweet victory<br />
Cry the brave men tonight<br />
As mightily they try to fight<br />
For the growing, longing victory.<br />
Freely flows blood’s redness<br />
<strong>St</strong>aining all the ground<br />
The howl of death’s hound<br />
Shatters the souls of the young and old.<br />
By sword and arrow<br />
Victims fall about<br />
And their souls take a rout<br />
Guided by the angels of death.<br />
And centuries later<br />
Casualties of bomb and shell<br />
Follow the same course of hell<br />
Where disease kills the most.<br />
How cruel we are!<br />
With all the blood shed<br />
‘Till our hands run red<br />
As we sit in awe.<br />
But be warned!<br />
Death comes to all<br />
For even the mighty<br />
Will one day fall.
