1989

[Verse 1]
The ghost of it all still haunting me
The thousands that had to fall in vain
I see that wall
Before me
And that was the way it had to be
The thousands that had to go insane
I see a war that isn't mine
It only lives inside your mind

[Chorus]
There's a new fire
From the ashes of the old
Rising up from deep inside the lies
And stories you were told
There is still a beating
In the heart broken in two
Wisdom coming from the innocence
That they stole from you
1989
1989

[Verse 2]
The echo's strengths from long ago
You follow a line where blood runs deep
I see that war
Before me
Way down inside you have to know
Poets and thinkers rest in peace
I see your war that will be mine
Follow the path they left behind

[Chorus]
There's a new fire
From the ashes of the old
Rising up from deep inside the lies
And stories you were told
There is still a beating
In the heart broken in two
Wisdom coming from the innocence
That they stole from you

[Post-Chorus]
1989
1989

[Outro]
There's a new fire
