Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all

Forever remember, never to crawl

You gave what you could give

while we gave it all

and remain unacclaimed names on a wall



The slaughter and torture we feel in your eyes, the years and the fears

the orange colored skies

We gave all for nothing,

and weren't you surprised,

all for old glory, without knowing why



Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all

Forever remember, never to crawl

You gave what you could give

and we gave it all

and remain unacclaimed names on a wall



The heart blood of youth

runs cold through your veins

Still searching for truth

And finding nothing but pain

You keep pounding the tracks like

a runaway train

While the war monger's hunger

tastes blood again



Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all

Forever remember, never to crawl

You gave what you could give

while we gave it all

and remain unacclaimed names on a wall
