Valley Forge Songtext
von Cain Resurrection

These sticks and stones creak so loud
That you might awaken the ones that we laid to rest
These screams could not be heard inside this war of words
These hearts consumed by every open wound

With these bones for beds
We′ll lie here and wait for the dead
We'll let the maggots have their way
You can′t hide this debt to be paid
Let them rot

We'll cut the heads off and watch the bodies unravel
They've still never felt so cold
These screams could not be heard inside this war of words
These hearts consumed by every open wound


With these bones for beds (these bones for beds)
We′ll lie here and wait for the dead
We′ll let the maggots have their way
You can't hide this open wound, this pain

Lani told of a future world that in the depth of winter
When nothing but hope and virtue could survive
That the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger
Came forth to meet and to repulse it

So let these flags still fly, so let these statues stand
They′re all just ash and dust, we'll all be joining them soon

With these bones for beds (these bones for beds)
We′ll lie here and wait for the dead

We have it in our power to begin the world over again
The birthday of a new world is at hand
I heard bullets whistle, and believe me
There is something charming in the sound

So let these flags still fly, so let these statues stand
They're all just ash and dust, we′ll all be joining them soon
Them soon, join them soon, join them soon
