Memento Lyrics by Mil-Spec

Marathon

2023

Unshield your eyes
The righteous walk is long
To truth, where love begins
Quieted our doubtful minds
That knocked us off our way
And it’s cold, in the shade
In the shadow that the world leaves
There’s no nostalgia in
The dream where I escape
The people turn and stare
At this empty painted sky
We’ll keep no memento for
The lives we’ll leave behind
When words fail I’ll borrow yours
Dark days ahеad in the old world
As the new strugglеs to be born
Unshield your eyes
The righteous walk is long
To truth, where love begins
The flowers for soldiers
Wilt in children’s hands
On and on, on and on
When I reach out, they pull away
When I return one day, I won’t recall this place
Hand in hand — we’ll decide
But keep no memento for what we leave behind
Scatter the seeds when it’s warm
In the fall, we’ll see what’s born
Hand in hand — we’ll decide
But no memento for what we leave behind
