"The Bitter Winds" lyrics

Apathy enraged
I'll purge these greying days
Beaten down and beating out
A rhythm now of change
I am on my way
Come riot, come the reign
Join if you can justify
A hope beyond today

Yet on the other side
The rain it shines like gold and silver
I'll bring the rust of discontent

Am I the only one
Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly?
Am I the only one
Who takes the battle in his stride?
Am I the only one who knows
There is no subsitute for hope?
I'll go far beyond these barricades

Lowly are our days
While life is lived this way
Join in our half-lives defined
By sharing out our pain
I refuse to wait (To wait)
I'll steal my own escape (Escape)
If they rot then so begot
In sameness they remain

Yet on the other side
The rain it shines like gold and silver
I'll bring the rust of discontent

Am I the only one
Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly?
Am I the only one
Who takes the battle in his stride?
Am I the only one who knows
There is no subsitute for hope?
I'll go far beyond these barricades

We are the, we are the iron
Made to shield the hope of dawn
We are the, we are the iron
Melt us down, you'll see our
Faces in the sword
Yeah

Am I the only one
Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly?
Am I the only one
Who takes the battle in his stride?
Am I the only one who knows
There is no subsitute for hope?
I'll go far beyond these barricades
Am I the only one
Who'd brave the bitter wind to fly?
Am I the only one
Who takes the battle in his stride?
Am I the only one who knows
There is no subsitute for hope?
I'll go far beyond these barricades
