A Legion's Muse lyrics

Hearts swell and thump

To the pounding drum beat

That is the anthem of war

Pulling them toward morality

But there is no music heard

No marching to be had

That will bury the dead

Or comfort those so sad

Eyes concentrating, closed

Sensing serenely the moment

Stupendous splendor valor

Bathed in its glory

Here is where is the draw

Attired in a national cloak

With pride and decoration

No thought for what comes

But in my tattered mind

The shadows of the past

A place where the thumping

Is but an age's torture

The tears are not of awe

A silent heart is broken

A sound that is unheard

Yet overtakes our breath

A soul torn and twisted

Knowing the barbarism of man

The bared enevidable truth

It cannot hide from the light

Their muted cries veiled

In the cannon fire salute

But those who have been

See the magestic truth

Peace is but a span of brevity

In a moment the sun peers

Through the obscurity of clouds

Revealing some warmimg hope

Eyes closed, it comes out

I long to see the smiles

To find those tears of joy

To know a valid wonderment

Play it loud, shout it out

Patriotic, and boldly clear

For their ears are sodden

Beneath their eternal green garb

My heart beats, its obligation
