Stand with Yu - Electronic Version Songtext

Stand with Yu - Electronic Version Songtext
That freezing night cut deep inside
Your desperate cries tore through the sky
Your sudden leaving, hard to bear
Only regret is left behind—
We never met you soon enough
Nor lit a candle when you stood alone in the dark
What′s happened to this world we know?
The good die young, the wicked roam
Your death ignited the people's rage
Conscience won′t let us hide in silence
We cannot, we will not
Watch you vanish into the dark
Yu Menglong — can you see us now?
Some write letters to hold the rulers to account
Some light candles through the night
Across the sea your compatriots chant prayers for your soul
Yu Menglong — can you hear our voice?
On Hollywood Boulevard they shout your name
People around the world are speaking for you!
You are the brightest star in our night sky
Your leaving woke us from our dream
This land is not as kind as it seemed
You showed us that cold, unfeeling face
That ruthless power, that soundless fear
You taught us this truth—
Under iron fists, no one is safe
We are all lambs awaiting the blade
You are our hero!
Your courage and unyielding will
Teach us to defend our rights—
Better to die on our feet than live on our knees!
Yu Menglong — we stand with you!
They delete the posts and erase your trace
But they can never erase your name from our hearts
Your pain, we will share
Your injustice, we will speak aloud
You became the wind, carrying the truth across the world
You became the light, giving us faith to fight the dark
Though they lock you away and bury your voice
Belief won't die, truth won't fade
Yu Menglong — we stand with you
In the weeping streets, in the sea of flames
When dawn breaks through the darkness
Justice will not be buried
Freedom will return!
We will bring you justice
So those like you may finally rest in peace
Your desperate cries tore through the sky
Your sudden leaving, hard to bear
Only regret is left behind—
We never met you soon enough
Nor lit a candle when you stood alone in the dark
What′s happened to this world we know?
The good die young, the wicked roam
Your death ignited the people's rage
Conscience won′t let us hide in silence
We cannot, we will not
Watch you vanish into the dark
Yu Menglong — can you see us now?
Some write letters to hold the rulers to account
Some light candles through the night
Across the sea your compatriots chant prayers for your soul
Yu Menglong — can you hear our voice?
On Hollywood Boulevard they shout your name
People around the world are speaking for you!
You are the brightest star in our night sky
Your leaving woke us from our dream
This land is not as kind as it seemed
You showed us that cold, unfeeling face
That ruthless power, that soundless fear
You taught us this truth—
Under iron fists, no one is safe
We are all lambs awaiting the blade
You are our hero!
Your courage and unyielding will
Teach us to defend our rights—
Better to die on our feet than live on our knees!
Yu Menglong — we stand with you!
They delete the posts and erase your trace
But they can never erase your name from our hearts
Your pain, we will share
Your injustice, we will speak aloud
You became the wind, carrying the truth across the world
You became the light, giving us faith to fight the dark
Though they lock you away and bury your voice
Belief won't die, truth won't fade
Yu Menglong — we stand with you
In the weeping streets, in the sea of flames
When dawn breaks through the darkness
Justice will not be buried
Freedom will return!
We will bring you justice
So those like you may finally rest in peace
