Long Live

Long live the ones who fought through it,

Their painful war inside,

Long live the ones with broken souls,

Faced fears and did not hide.

Long live the ones with tear-filled eyes

Yet held the strongest fists

Long live the ones who held their pride

And stood with pure, clean wrists

Long live the ones who stood their ground

Though bleeding in their hearts

Long live the ones who built new lives

Out of their broken parts

Long live the ones who overcame

Their worries, faced them all

Long live the ones who understood

The worth of standing tall
