Heartbeat In the Night

Blue skies in deep dark corruption Starlit and shining with desire Night swelling in clouded disruption Blinding the front in a siege of fire Clouds of grief melt into silence Showers of steel engage in violence The heartbeat of warriors amidst the pain Falters and swells in lonely rain Souls of a hundred soldiers breath in the fight Thousands of heartbeats sing in the night Best friends at heart, at truth they are brothers Sworn to fight side by side and protect each other The best they can offer is more than needed That they tried is proof that they've succeeded Heartbeats in the night That cannot be defeated
