Lyrics:

I walked on the battlefield yesterday. I crunched over bones and soaked up blood with my shoes. Stay your mind, for the sun, it shined.

For the most fertile soil also holds the most death. And we all grow from detritus and back again. Stay your mind, for the sun, it shined.

It filtered through the trees and bronzed the bones, Which glowed and flowed and climbed the rays to New free life.

So stay your mind, and remember the sun, how it shined. So stay your mind, and remember the sun, how it shined.

I look across the field and what do I see? Ten thousand enemies arrayed against me. Should I run or should I stand and fight?

If I stand they will pluck out my eyes, And with their hooks chain my flesh to lies, So no, I don't want to stay.

But I look at the ground and what do I see? All my fellow men who died for me, And with their bones I do plead
