Ballad of the Free World

lay you down to sleep, my dear
pray your soul is sincere
we are the keepers of this world
shape it with your care

for those who died before me
don't feel lonely
your message we will hear
on the backs of those
in a battle filled with tears

lay you down to sleep, my dear
pray your soul is sincere

we must not give on this fight

kick me down enough and i will rise
miscalculate your own demise
your tyrant ways are lined with lies
history will tell the story
of the glory for those who stand aligned

aligned my dear

mankind will not be on your side
your very own will turn their backs on you
