Fight On

We lament the hollow bad times gone by;
of heroes and leaders failing to try,
but look closer to home,
where there's bigger fish to fry
and tell me you'll fight on.

They call us the 'lost generation',
the ones forgotten by a greedy nation;
but look closer to home,
the origin of your creation,
and tell me you'll fight on.

We will work 'til we die, the elected say;
Paying for past mistakes and days.
But look closer to home,
and the enemies you slay
and tell me you'll fight on.

Currencies will crash and politics fight,
all for what they think is right.
But look closer to home,
where your hearts are bright
and tell me you'll fight on.

We lament the hollow bad times gone by;
of those we look up to, trust not to lie.
But look closer to home,
where love doesn't die,
and tell me you'll fight on.
