You must let your truth speak
Sleep now child amongst the stars of us
In landscapes painted 
by old masters hands
In the shadow of temples 
raised for Gods
yet built by man 
Sleep now child in the solace of past victory
fought by warriors you shall never know 
out of blood-soaked soil cities grow 
built on the dust of endless sorrow 
Sleep now child 
wake a man 
and let the cycle continue again 
Take your place in the halls of the lost 
Join the whispers of ghosts 
You served them well
