Lyrics
LEGEND WILL ALWAYS LIVE
© Lyrics by Rizo Balic
VERSE [ONE]
I LIT A CANDLE,
FOR ALL THE BROKEN HEARTS,
FOR GRIEVING MOTHERS,
LOOKING FOR THEIR LOST CHILDREN,
FOR ALL UNKNOWN HEROES,
BURIED ALL OVER THE WORLD.
VERSE [TWO]
LIKE LOST SHIPS IN THE STORM,
THEY FOUGHT THE LAST BATTLE,
HEAD HELD HIGH THEY KNEW,
THERE IS NO HOPE,
THEIR NAMES WILL SHORT LIVE,
BUT THE HISTORY NEVER DIES.
BRIDGE:
MOTHER'S GRIEF ENDS,
WHEN THE CHILD IS FIND SAFE,
CHORUS:
ON UNKNOWN SOLDIERS GRAVES,
CANDLES WILL BURN OUT,
LONG BEFORE WE'LL FIND,
THEIR FAMILY ROOTS.
VERSE [THREE]
LIKE BROKEN SHIP AFTER THE STORM,
LAYING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA,
THEY LIED PEACEFUL ON GREEN FIELDS,
MEMORIES NEVER LAST TOO LONG,
THE NAMES ON THE GRAVES FADES,
THEIR HEROIC DEEDS WILL SURVIVE.
VERSE [FOUR]
FEARLESS THEY FOUGHT THE LAST BATTLE,
FOR OUR BETTER FUTURE,
FOR THE LIGHT AFTER DARKNESS,
WHEN ALL IS BEAUTIFUL AGAIN,
THEY KNEW NOTHING LAST FOREVER,
BUT THE LEGEND WILL SURVIVE.
