lyrics

I have watched you wander
Marched alongside you
From that pretty summer
That cleaved us both in two

And I have to ask
Now that we've arrived
Did you know
That this is where you died?

A summer sunburn fades
But cracks they only grow
Until what finally breaks
Is you, now all alone

And you can try to turn back
But the battle lines are drawn
Now only smoke and stars
Can leave before the dawn

I saw you falling
Like paper peaks in the winter time
I saw you falling
Like paper peaks in the winter time

You do not know nor can you
When summertime will end
But after winter leaves you
Spring will come again

So sleep beneath the snow
And dream of greener grass
Think of a new name for yourself
To use when this is past

Canons fire into the night
A standard charges to the fight

I saw you falling
Like paper peaks in the winter time
I saw you falling
Like paper peaks in the winter time
I saw you falling
Like paper peaks in the winter time
I saw you falling
Like paper peaks in the winter time

When you rise what should I call you?
When you rise what should I call you?
When you rise what should I call you?

When you rise what should I call you?
When you rise what should I call you?
When you rise what can I call you?

What can I call you when you arise?
