What Did You Do In The War, Dad-Sonata Arctica[00:00:01]
Dad, what did you do in the war?[00:00:32]
Something to answer for?[00:00:37]
You say too young I am to know[00:00:40]
Dad, I've heard you cry at night[00:00:46]
Mournful and desperate blight[00:00:51]
Where did you learn that song you sing[00:00:55]
"War is in me! I was the war![00:01:31]
And your praying brings back the suffering[00:01:33]
No, please, don't start to cry[00:01:38]
I only pray you'll never know[00:01:45]
The things I see every time I close my eyes[00:01:48]
Angels still have faces"[00:01:53]
What did you do in the war, dad, tell me[00:02:00]
Why can't you smile when the children sing[00:02:03]
Did the wages of war cut your soaring wings[00:02:07]
And your soul is now torn, unlike mine[00:02:14]
Do you fear yesterday will in someway[00:02:21]
Define the life of your child?[00:02:27]
Dad, I know what you did in the war[00:03:10]
Deeds devils would abhor[00:03:15]
Did you filfil the oath you swore?[00:03:19]
Dad, did you do it for me?[00:03:24]
Their blood for my life to live[00:03:30]
In the hollow without reprieve, without you[00:03:34]
"War is in me! I am the war![00:03:39]
Don't you force me to live the nightmare again![00:03:42]
I'm sorry[00:03:46]
Please, don't make my cry[00:03:47]
My son, you never ever want to know[00:03:53]
How when guarding your sleep serene I hear[00:03:57]
The silence of the children who sang"[00:04:01]
Far and beyond the stars there's[00:04:38]
A place where all the love,[00:04:44]
All the goodness we could have still resides[00:04:47]
But we choose life away from the light[00:04:52]
You can find ghosts of loss in the gaze of your[00:05:00]
Beautiful child[00:05:06]
