Invictus
Do the lanterns lead us on from afar? Do our eyes belie the memory of the friends we've lost? Take comfort, if you believe you'll meet again But until that day, as we mortals may, live to honour them Let us not be weighted by what we can't control The past cannot be changed, the future calls us on And should you try and fail, stand and start again The deepest cuts all heal, leaving only what you've learned from them So we change, so we change the world Hiding, not among the thousands But with a voice that's heard And the ages turn, as the ages turned before In the acts of our tenacity - Long may we endure! Tempered by the forge; laden as the die are cast Onwards we move, bearing all our wounds­ until the worst is past In the aftermath, we'll answer to ourselves For our measure of our actions and for our victories So we change, so we change the world Hiding, not among the thousands But with a voice that's heard And the ages turn, as the ages turned before In the acts of our tenacity - Long may we endure!
