I never thought that it would be this way
And I won't forget the song we sang that day.
I remember how it felt when the trumpet sang,
But now that feeling has all but gone away.
It's not too late to fix what has been set wrong,
Inviting you to come back where you belong.
But this song was written on your heart,
Before you let its melody depart.
We used to be so strong,
But if only you could remember
Than we could endure together.
We could look fear in the face and say
We never want to be this way again.
It's hard to believe that it turned out like this.
We're spitting angry words and clenching our fists.

It's time to show the world that we're more than just kids,
'cause this is not the way that we were meant to live.
It's not too late to fix what has been set wrong,
Inviting you to come back where you belong.
But this song was written on your heart,
Before you let its melody depart.
We used to be so strong,
But if only you could remember
Than we could endure together.
We could look fear in the face and say
We never want to be this way again.
And on that cold December we stood and fought together,
With fire in our hearts. That day set you apart.
And when the war was over, we all came home as soldiers,
Beaten but not broken, ready to live again.
Never again!
