[Intro]
                                  
                                   (x2)

[Verse 1]
            
Do you remembe

              
r standing on 

        
a broken field
            
White crippled

              
 wings beating

        
 the sky
            
The harbingers

              
 of war with t

        
heir nature re

vealed
            
And our chance

                      
s flowing by


[Pre-Chorus]
             
If I can let t

          
he memory heal
             
I will remembe

          
r you with me 

on that field


[Chorus]
            
When I thought

            
 that I fought

      
 this war alon

e
            
You were there

            
 by my side on

      
 the front lin

e
            
When I thought

            
 that I fought

            
 without a cau


se
              
You gave me a 

         
reason to try

                                  
                                   (x2)

[Verse 2]
            
Turn the page 

              
I need to see 

        
something new
            
For now my inn

                      
ocence is torn
            
We cannot ling

              
er on this stu

        
nted view
            
Like rabid dog

                      
s of war


[Pre-Chorus]
             
I will let the

          
 memory heal
             
I'll remember 

          
you with me on

 that field


[Chorus]
            
When I thought

            
 that I fought

      
 this war alon

e
            
You were there

            
 by my side on

      
 the front lin

e
            
And we fought 

            
to believe the

            
 impossible
            
When I thought

             
 that I fought

 
 this war alon

e
            
We were one wi

            
th our destini

      
es entwined
            
When I thought

            
 that I fought

      
 without a cau

se
            
You gave me th

        
e reason why


[Bridge]
            
With no-one we

            
aring their re

al face
            
It's a whiteou

     
t of emotion
             
And I've only 

            
got my brittle

              
 bones to brea

      
k the fall
             
When the love 

          
in letters fad

e
            
It's like movi

      
ng in slow mot

ion
             
And we're alre

            
ady too late i

              
f we arrive at

      
 all
             
And then we're

             
 caught up in 

     
the arms race
             
An involuntary

  
 addiction
             
And we're shed

              
ding every val

       
ue our mothers

 taught
             
So will you pl


ease show me y

our real face
             
Draw the line 


in the horizon
             
'Cause I only 

              
need your name

             
 to call the r

              
easons why I f

   
ought


[Chorus]
            
When I thought

            
 that I fought

      
 this war alon

e
            
You were there

            
 by my side on

And we fought 

            
to believe the

When I thought
