Do I fight?

Just expressing fears for my future

You were born to a mountain too proud to crumble

Blue eyes behind you

Meant not to stumble

A few hundred years and the mornings are hazy

Night falls too black 

Afraid for my baby

Do I fight?

And where will you go when the paths are eroded

The prisons are full

The new trains are loaded

Meteors fall and the sweet light is sleeping

The fathers lay dead

The mothers all weeping

Are millions of pin pricks enough for a giant

Is it enough

To stand here defiant

Do I fight?

Feeling so small in the face of their wrath

How many go
And never come back

The future was yours but I'm watching it fade

Turning to dust

All we have made

Do I fight 
Or turn my face away?
