Raise Thy Voice
shall we dance once more in these hallowed halls of memories
Take back the childhood once lost to us
Reverse a thousand decisions till there is but indecision
Shall we dance slowly this time in the ring of fire careful not to get burnt
Shall we sing once love filled songs with the poison of hate thick in our
hearts
Shall we fall in love once again knowing what we know now
Should our nights blend with our days leaving us in a wild haze
Should we walk under half laden moons or hold each other till first mornings light
Shall we cherish the time we have or despise the time we're apart
Shall we stake our claim on a tree in the woods
Declare our love in the pouring rain
Kiss under the full moons light
Shall we dance once more in these hallowed halls of memories
Shatter the panes of oppression that bounds our speech our expressions
Shall we dance shall we dance shall we dance to the rhythmless sounds of silence
Shall we open thy mouths to let harmonies blend till the end
Raise thy voice and shatter the silence
Of a generation that was to prone to violence
Grew up to quick yes indeed
Raise thy voice raise it now
