Lyrics Battle Cry - Hanson

It always starts with the blast of a distant shell
Then the smoke fills the air and they start to yell
Every man feels the blow when the earth explodes
There's a look in their eyes like a walking ghost
And every time you fall face down in the dirt
I never will be far
Don't be afraid
I've got a battle cry
So you can follow me
Even in the darkness I'll never leave your side
I've got a battle cry
When the dust settles under a wounded sky
Then you count who is left saying who survived
You never know whose goodbyes
You will have to send
Then tomorrow the march will begin again
And every time you fall weary on your knees
I will never be far
Don't be afraid
I've got a battle cry
So you can follow me
Even in darkness I'll never leave your side
I've got a battle cry
So if you're up against the wall
Staring down the firing squad
They ask you for your final verse
Be brave
Tell them to do their worst
I've got a battle cry
So you can follow me
Even in darkness I'll never leave your side
I've got a battle cry
I've got a battle cry
So you can follow me
Even in darkness I'll never leave your side
I've got a battle cry
