Garden of Souls

Drums echo in memory
Cold heartbeats, lost cries of the sea
As freedom is never free
Some pay for who we ought to be

Garden of souls, we tend to thee
Each bloom a life they've taken for free
Rest under these skies of blue
Their colors will fade at the coming of fall
In the cold of the shade, their roots will stand tall
Long as their memories stay true
Their beauty shall live on in you

Time rushing to pass them by
No goodbyes, just flickering fire
Blinded by shrieking light
They dream for a new day to rise

Garden of souls, we tend to thee
Each bloom a life they've taken for free
Rest under these skies of blue
Their colors will fade at the coming of fall
In the cold of the shade, their roots will stand tall
Long as their memories stay true
Their beauty shall live on in you

Forever in debt
To those who stood stall
No shame or regret
But only the fear to fall
In life or in death
They give us the sky
As with their last breath
Our flag will begin to fly

Garden of souls, we tend to thee
Each bloom a life they've taken for free
Rest under these skies of blue
Their colors will fade at the coming of fall
In the cold of the shade, their roots will stand tall
Long as their memories stay true
Long as their memories stay true
Long as their memories stay true
Their beauty shall live on in you
