[verse 1]
one of the bricks has fallen
from the wall that held the names of those who died
and the stains of their blood
were whitewashed by the flood
the backlash and the pride
of the survivors that lied

[verse 2]
and now that the leaves have fallen
and the city’s lost its only trace of god
and the wind that sweeps the streets
also chills the feet
and the churches lie in ruins
wherever the armies have trod

[chorus]
but now the chains break for the last time
it’s not enough just to do the best you can
but i only wish you would care
as much as the others
but it’s a lot to ask
for concern is a lonely thing

[verse 3]
and now that the soldiers have fallen
they lay drunk in the scum and the mud
and the wine won’t stop the rain
and it won’t bring their friends back again
it won’t ease the pain
or the sight of the blood
[verse 4]
and one of the leaders has fallen
yet we cannot waste the time to even mourn
for flags are made of dust
and armor made to rust
and faith that dies with ease
is faith that was never born

[chorus]
but now the chains break for the last time
it’s not enough just to do the best you can
but i only wish you would care
as much as the others
but it’s a lot to ask
for concern is a lonely thing

[verse 6]
and now that the seeds have fallen
like a sign for the beginning of the end
and the summer lasts ’til fall
’til the reaper makes his call
and the harvest brings the death
but a death that comes as friend

[chorus]
but now the chains break for the last time
it’s not enough just to do the best you can
but i only wish you would care
as much as the others
but it’s a lot to ask
for concern is a lonely thing
