And through the fence I see a ghost
Of a place that used to breathe.
You know it choked away the sun,
But we still had food to eat.

And now everyone is gone
To a place that won't be home,
Can they keep their family strong?
Will they make it on their own?

And we'll be standing when you're gone,
And we'll be heard again.
We missed our chance, but not for long,
I know somehow we will hold on. 
We'll be here when you're gone.

Then one day we realized
That they couldn't hear our voice.
And it's so hard to understand 
When it's caught up in the noise.

But the ones who fight and die,
Are the [bad word] inside the lie,
Now it's all built on our backs
And we [bad word] to survive.

And we'll be standing when you're gone,
And we'll be heard again.
We missed our chance, but not for long
I know somehow we will hold on 
We'll be here when you're gone. 

We'll hold on.
We'll be here when you're gone.
