To Stand and Fight

Awake amidst a solemn night

With hands outstretched towards the sky

A silent vow without a sound

That cast a fear below the ground

All you love will turn to dust

As with time all things shall rust

Within the hearts of all alike

rests a hope to one day rise

To see to live another day

To make a stand and carve a way

Against a fate so set in stone

That it leaves none but earth and bone

In spite of fear, In spite of blight

To smite the dark and seize the light

while knowing how the journey ends

As lightning sparks fire in rain

To clutch with us another day

Of what's destined to fade away

Yet till that day we'll grasp the sky

And cast the Day into the Night
