A Man's Anthem

Lyrics

[Verse] Farewell fields of golden hue Sky turning blood red blue Mountains whisper ancient cries Tears of love in my eyes [Verse 2] Built this land with calloused hands Heart of stone in shifting sands World on fire fear it cracks Bombs and lies can't relax [Chorus] Hold me close my homeland dear Drowning in a sea of fear Shadows rise world turns dim Sing a song 'fore the end begins [Bridge] Hear the sax cry in the night Banjo strum hold on tight Hope in silence thunder roar Soul in fragments peace implore [Verse 3] Love's the breath the wind that blows Roots run deep in soil we know Fists clenched tight against the breeze Land of dreams on my knees [Chorus] Hold me close my homeland dear Drowning in a sea of fear Shadows rise world turns dim Sing a song 'fore the end begins
