Inter Arma - The Children the Bombs Overlooked

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2059249
Stare into the brutish jaws
Of strife's heartless device

And turn your back to hell
Resolute in a profound defiance
No snake coiled your untempered spine
Stoic-eyed and sage far beyond your years

Stoic-eyed as youth's zeal was forcibly cleaved from your being
Stoic-eyed as your homeland bore every strike of lightning
From those thousand scalding storms

Stoic-eyed as the painted fields of your youth dеvolved
Into ragged horizons of lush minefiеlds
Stoic-eyed against the panorama of churning, wanton death
Resolute in a profound defiance

You stared into the brutish jaws
Of strife's heartless device
And you turned your back to hell
Alone, you forged your innermost tribulations
Into an unheralded saga of deep bearing
Ever defiant like a glimmer of quartz
In an iron mine
You child the bombs overlooked
You child the bombs overlooked
