Holding on

(Brooker / Reid)Zika nor nama ... hesah!Through this hourglassSands are running fastIn deserted plainsKingdoms write their namesOn these burning sandsKingdoms show their handsIn these killing fieldsSoldiers show their steelThe men who play the gods of warThey stay behind the guarded doorAnd hostages who seek releaseThey're crying out to keep the peaceHolding on... Holding onOne day we will be free, one day if we're strongHolding on... Holding onThrough the shadows cast to a brighter dayIn these fields of stoneFar away from homeIn this vale of tearsThe men who play the gods of warThey stay behind the guarded doorReligious leaders teachin' hatePraise the war and call it fate
