Lead By Faith
I know where my heart is.
Why do I feel so torn apart?

Maybe I should get back to the start.

Me, having girlfriend after girlfriend.
Her, having boyfriend after boyfriend.

The winter winds moan among those forlorn monuments to death,
Marking the spots where brave men fell gasping their last breath.
Upon bleak Calhoun Hill where Seventh Cavalrymen gave their all,
Now lie 225 souls in hallowed graves...

Without a wish in my heart
I stare at glen's pinnacle.
The end of the yellow brick road shakes my weary hand.
