Long Forgotten Sons

Far from home on a road unknown

Where the vultures circle on winds that blow

From northern skies that haunt these waking moments

On shadows cast by the mountain range

Our calloused souls, we find out way

Through desperate eyes, we long for the horizon

While this sun is risin', yeah

We are the long forgotten sons

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And daughters that don't belong to anyone

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And we are alone under this sun

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And we want to fix the work that you've undone

When cries for help go unanswered

And signal fires just burn and burn

We wonder if we're waitin' here for nothing

'Cause our lips are sewn, our ears are filled

With the constant drone of the unfulfilled

But we'll never fall if we stand for something

We stand for something, yeah

Yeah, we are the long forgotten sons

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And daughters that don't belong to anyone

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And we are alone under this sun

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And we want to fix the work that you've undone

(Ah, oh, oh, whoa, oh)

Don't fall, I see lights in the distance

They're not far away

Stand up 'cause the sky is turning gray

There's hope in these footsteps of persistence

So don't go astray

These lights get closer everyday

'Cause we are the long forgotten sons

Yeah, we are the long forgotten sons

We are the long forgotten sons

(Whoa)

(What happens now, we don't know, just hold on tight now here we go)

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And daughters that don't belong to anyone

(What happens now, we don't know, just hold on tight now here we go)

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

And we are alone under this sun

(What happens now, we don't know, just hold on tight now here we go)

(Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh)

We want to fix the work that you've undone, what you've undone

(What happens now, we don't know, just hold on tight now here we go)
