lirik lagu dead reckoning – forgotten dead
now let’s set the record straight. there’s no argument over the choice between peace and war, but there’s only one guaranteed way you can have peace—and you can have it in the next second—surrender
admittedly, there’s a risk in any course we follow other than this, but every lesson of history tells us that the greater risk lies in appeas~m~nt, and this is thе specter our well~mеaning liberal friends refuse to face—that their policy of accommodation is appeas~m~nt, and it gives no choice between peace and war, only between fight or surrender. if we continue to accommodate, continue to back and retreat, eventually we have to face the final demand—the ultimatum. and what then—when nikita khrushchev has told his people he knows what our answer will be? he has told them that we’re retreating under the pressure of the cold war, and someday when the time comes to deliver the final ultimatum, our surrender will be voluntary, because by that time we will have been weakened from within spiritually, morally, and economically. he believes this because from our side he’s heard voices pleading for “peace at any price” or “better red than dead.”
should the patriots at concord bridge have thrown down their guns and refused to fire the shot heard ’round the world? the martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to stop the advance of the n~z~s didn’t die in vain. where, then, is the road to peace? well it’s a simple answer after all
you and i have the courage to say to our enemies, “there is a price we will not pay.” “there is a point beyond which they must not advance.”
forgotten
forsaken
halls of the dead
silent
it seems no one remembers
erased from their minds
the sacrifices (the sacrifices)
of those left behind
choosing to fight in h~ll
bleeding for the freedom
of those undeserving
forgotten
memories, lies, bare bones
fading to dust, shallow hollow
the sands run red
forgotten dead
forgotten
forsaken
the screams they echo
throughout the night
trying to reconcile
with who they used to be
fractured reality
forgotten
memories, lies, bare bones
fading to dust, shallow hollow
the sands run red
forgotten dead
the dead
the price of freedom (freedom)
is paid in blood
for those that didn’t come home
and those left here alone
the life you gave will never be
forgotten
memories, lies, bare bones
fading to dust, shallow hollow
the sands run red
forgotten dead
no
never forget
the blood they shed
the lives they led
respect the dead
