I should have never left you here alone
In these times of trouble we should have see
The dark times ahead of us
I hope you won't inherit our hateful mind
Don't walk the dark paths we left behind
Just stay on the bright side

You may all be praying, encouraged by light
It was only a wall to hide behind
You fought for us to save our lives
In this time, in this time we can see
You wanted us to know

I saw them coming, they were right on time
To witness the fall of all good we had in mind
How did it come this far?
A flash and all was lost, the flames did come
And they were bitter cold, we did this to ourselves

You may all be fighting, encouraged by the light
That's all you had to hide behind
You fought for us to save our life
In this time, in this time we could be
The ones you have set free

I should have never left you here alone
In these times of trouble we should have see
The dark wars were coming
I hope you won't inherit our hateful mind
Remember the fire we left behind
We did it to ourselves

You may all be fighting, encouraged by the light
That's all you had to hide behind
You fought for us to save our life
In this time, in this time we can see
That none of us were free
