"Into The White" lyrics - CALIGULA'S HORSE

Into the white
The scent of fire behind
First steps to freedom
Are lighter than we ever knew
Called through the cold
We hold our daughters close
And sing to our sons
"Change will surely come"
Into the white
Broken faith leaves scars behind
We embrace them
And carry broken shackles by our side
Called through the cold
We hold our daughters close
And sing to our sons
"Change will surely come"

[Pre-Chorus:]
We left our prayers with our old gods
White hand, release
Leaves in the fading smoke
So easy to forget
The voice that never spoke

[Chorus:]
Walking our own road
Each step, each breath
We are fighting for our lives and we are losing every one
The things we gave up for a dream we are still waiting for
And still we hold on

[Post-Chorus:]
In time

Into the white
The road is mine and I am his
Our last steps as free men
And proud at the end
It comes to this
Called through the cold
Road to a home we'll never know
We gave to our sons
A heavy, burdened hope

[Pre-Chorus:]
We left our prayers with our old gods
Hold on till dawn
Lost like our steps in snow
So easy to forget the way
The road we make, we own

[Chorus:]
Walking our own road
Each step, each breath
We are fighting for our lives and we are losing every one
The things we gave up for a dream we are still waiting for

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge:]
We were so young then
Firelight holds their peace
Sing a farewell by smoke in the cold
We farewell the old as they fall

[Outro:]
As they fall into silence
Fall
As they fall to silence
Fall
Into silence, silence
As they fall to silence, to silence
