Anthem - The Crüxshadows

Beneath the doubt and confusion

Beneath the sting of betrayal

Survives the core of a nation

Trapped in a state of denial

Do you hear the calling

Voice from deep within

The forgotten heart of an anthem

Like whispers on the wind

It calls the shameful to honor

It calls the darkness to dawn

It calls the captive with the will to be free

And the anthem marches on

There’s nothing like a blind man’s memory

Music colors refuse to see

I play with smoke and mirrors now

Living life across your many screens

And I’m sure there is no utopia

But always vision is a step away

Your viewpoint becomes a technicality

The only chance we have

Is the chance we take!

The weakest fall in compliance

As fear discarded the dream

In subtle silence masking liberty

They take away by degrees

But I still hear the calling

A voice felt deep within

The forgotten heart of an anthem

Like whsipers on the wind

It calls the shameful to honor

It calls the darkness to dawn

It calls the captive with the will to be free

And the anthem marches on
