sons of

sons of the sea

sons of the saint

who is the child with no complaint

sons of the great or sons unknown

all were children like your own

the same sweet smiles

the same sad tears

the cries at night

the nightmare fears

sons of the great

sons unknown

all were children like your own

sons of tycoons

or sons from the farms

all of the children ran from your arms

through fields of gold

through fields of ruin

all of the children vanished too soon

in towering waves

in walls of flesh

amid dying birds trembling with death

sons of tycoons

sons from the farms

all of the children ran from your arms

sons of your sons

sons passing by

children were lost in lullaby

sons of true love

sons of regret

all of your sons you can never forget

some build the roads

some wrote the poems

some went to war

some never came home

sons of your sons

sons passing by

children were lost in lullaby
