Flight

The forest’s stillness feels like peace
I wish it were
I wish it were
The hope inside us a release
I wish it were
But it will cease

The sunshine filters through the glade
A bright attack
A bright attack
The light won’t save us from their blade
A bright attack
Hope starts to fade

A wooden hut to shelter in
Our breathing deep
Our breathing deep
If there’s no battle, they can’t win
Our breathing deep
Sweat leaves cold skin

One final push to make it back
I know we can
I know we can
Though long and open is the track
I know we can
Though speed we lack

Their raiders have us on the run
We’re nearly home
We’re nearly home
But silver’s severing the sun
We’re nearly home
We’re nearly done
