Out of the depths of the shadows Of the night that fell before We now find a new day Yet still we are at war The flag that stands for freedom Stands waving in the breeze The mothers and fathers of fallen soldiers Beside their grave sites on their knees The flag that stands for freedom Will not touch the ground The son of one of these heroes speaks And no one makes a sound He does not sight anger For the reason he too will fight He simply grasps his fathers medal As he pledges to stand up for what is right Out of the depths of the shadows Of the night that fell before We now find a new day And the eagle still he soars
