Procession

VNV Nation

I sat above them all and watched for days

I felt as though my own kind were all that mattered and kept me sane

I gathered them to me

Watched their hunted pass away as if direction had finally come

A resurrection for all our selves



I have never felt so proud

As I do now

Like the Sun is placed behind me

Feelings that matter never end



One day we'll see our names in stone where fires burn

The great who silent stood among you never praised nor never known

Our thoughts defined the passing days

Sensed the spirit, seized the age

After all these years to dream again

Like smiling children with faces raised

Cheering their path. Tomorrow's glory days



And we who were so scorned

Will always wish to make their end

Our words to still their voice

Our hands to break their worthless necks



One day we'll see our names in stone where fires burn

The great who silent stood among you never praised nor never known

Our thoughts defined the passing days

Sensed the spirit, seized the age

After all these years to dream again

Like smiling children with faces raised

Cheering their path. Tomorrow's glory days
