Dear Children

Time is an ocean draggin' us down
Hold on tight dear children
Death is a king who shares his crown
Pray through the night dear children

Lay down your arms
Strike up the band
Faith in your hearts
Blood on your hands

Truth is a razor gleamin' and sharp
Open your eyes dear children
Send me your kisses alone in the dark
Say your goodbyes dear children

Brothers and sisters
You've already saved
There's fire on the mountain
A black rose on your grave
