Hear Me Now

Do you hear me now?
Whispers in the shadow are calling your name
Echoes fade somehow
When the memories wither in another wave of pain
And we are falling down
Falling again and again

Across the battlefield of yesterday
We carry on one by one
Until the last one fades away
Fallen, broken, ever gone

Beyond the bloodred horizon
We still follow our path
Wherever it leads us our way goes on
Hoping and falling apart

Do you hear my voice?
We are the broken and fallen ones
Tell me if we ever had a choice
Fighting till the end for our hearts
Now it’s all just shadows and ghosts
All over around us

Can you see it through the dark
What happened to us?
Can you hear it through the night
Silence dwelling under the stars?

We were brighter than the sun
We shone like damn stars
What have we done?
What the fuck happened to us?

Do you hear me now?
Calling you through the night
Silently breaking down
Playing hide and seek with the God
Tell me what we’ve found
In this endless parade of pride
