Into the Breach

Once more into the breach, my friend, Will you stand with me? We've fought this fight a thousand times, Our bones are getting old; But no one's seen the evil we've seen, And the day is turning cold. So once more into the breach, my friend, Please won't you stand with me? We alone can stem the dark's foul rise And claim light's victory. Your back is stiff, and so is mine, Our youthful strength is lost. Those behind are in the spring of life, Those ahead in winter's frost. Come once more into the breach, my friend, I beg you stand with me. For we alone can stem the dark's foul rise, And claim light's victory. The night will threaten life and limb, Our families and our homes. Someone must stand up and fight, And if I must, I'll stand alone. Once more into the breach, my friend, Will you stand with me? We alone can stem the dark's foul rise, And claim light's victory.
