Halcyon Way - Inside Looking Out (The Icon & The Ghost) lyrics

[The [Ghost:]] What would our fathers have thought?* What would they say right now? Our house is burning down Burning down This is not what we bled for This is not why our sons have died Our house is coming down And we are still inside [The [Ghost:]] I'm in the air you breath I haunt the halls of history You can sense me all around I'm the one who denied the crown I'm the one who shed a tear When our sons and daughters died right here On blood-soaked lands, with dirty hands We grieve yet raise the flag [The Ghost (Chorus):] I watch over you I see the evil that you choose We fought and died for truth That you twist and the abuse I am watching over you I shed a tear for what you do From inside looking out I am the ghost inside your house [The [Ghost:]] When threatened from the east To defend my soil I'll give up peace Half a million of my children dead On sands of foreign lands Now sterile to this day So with all who dare betray When men stand tall ? with steely eyes Liberty will guide the way [Chorus] [Bridge:] [The Icon:] Do you hear them? [Ghost:] I can hear them marching [The Icon:] Do you see them? [Ghost:] I can see them ma**ing [The Icon:] Listen to them [Ghost:] Hear the soldiers marching [The Icon:] Hear them coming [The Icon & The Ghost:] They're coming, they're calling [The Icon, The Ghost & The Exile:] What would our fathers have thought? What would they say right now? Our house is burning down Burning down This is not what we bled for This is not why our sons have died Our house is coming down And we are still inside [Chorus x2] [The Icon & The Ghost:] What would our fathers have thought? What would they say right now? Our house is burning down Burning down This is not what we bled for This is not why our sons have died Our house is coming down And we are still inside
