Valley of Last Resort

LETRA

Valley of Last Resort

When the ghost of a sweet raving beast connects with your soul
When the thought of the unfinished fight won't let you go
When injustice still feeds on the frail, we all know
That the power of freak needs to speak to the world once more
Maybe chains are not broken by hope but they're rattled by prayer
And the peace that we reach for leaves fire and smoke in the air
If the world turns its back on our rights, there'll be news to report
On the battles begun in the valley of last resort

Truth is the point of the arrow
They fed us lies in the past
And the road ahead is narrow but fast
In the end we'll shout "life matters" at last

If regret was contagious, the world would be drowning in tears
Does the plague open hearts, open minds so the world finally hears?
There's a tipping point past when we witness a life cut short
Send the honor God formed in the valley of last resort

Oh, truth is the point of the arrow
They fed us lies in the past
And the road ahead is narrow but fast
In the end we'll shout "life matters" at last
And the road ahead is narrow but fast
In the end we'll shout "life matters" at last

And the anthems of freedom won't be sunk by the voices we've lost
Bless the hearts, names, and faces, the shock of the deadly cost
Warriors kneeling for justice, demanding other people's court
Send the honor God formed in the valley of last resort

Oh, truth is the point of the arrow
They fed us lies in the past
And the road ahead is narrow but fast
In the end we'll shout, oh yeah, "life matters" at last
And the road ahead is narrow but fast
In the end we'll shout, oh yeah, "life matters" at last, oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
