After the War

I saw the shadow decline

In another world, another time

Reflecting battles full of fear

So far away from home

Death has been near

I fought for liberty and faith

For survival of our race

The toll of blood it has been high

The dead will never see again

The sun up in the sky

I will return

Return to where I belong

Where I belong

I will be

Be with you after this war

After this war

What I saw beyond the gate

Eternal darkness - our fate

In everlasting night

Deserted and destroyed

An empire without light

The flame of hope kept me alive

The iron will survive

I did the things I had to do

And in my very soul

I've always been with you

I will return...

I had to leave it all behind

On my way to the other side

What to find ?

I had to go

Into the unknown

Through all my fear

You have been here

Here in my heart

I will return...

Ohh, after the war
