Lyrics
Who knows how long
I've been awake now?
The shadows on my wall don't sleep
They keep calling me
Beckoning...

Who knows what's right?
The lines keep getting thinner
My age has never made me wise
But I keep pushing on and on and on and on

There's nothing left to say now...
I'm giving up, giving up, hey hey, giving up now...
There's nothing left to say now...
I'm giving up, giving up, hey hey, giving up now...

Below my soul
I feel an engine
Collapsing as it sees the pain
If I could only shut it out
I've come too far
To see the end now
Even if my way is wrong
I keep pushing on and on and on and on

There's nothing left to say now...
I'm giving up, giving up, hey hey, giving up now...
There's nothing left to say now...
I'm giving up, giving up, hey hey, giving up now...

I keep falling, I keep falling down...
If you could only save me
I'm drowning in the waters of my soul

There's nothing left to say now...
I'm giving up, giving up, hey hey, giving up now...
There's nothing left to say now...
I'm giving up, giving up, hey hey, giving up now...

This is AWESOME!!!!!!
♥

I love how epic you've made it -- the violent battles interspersed with images of all they've lost (the photographs are very poignant) and moments when they hold together both literally and figuratively. I especially like how you ended it with the 2nd Mass 'holding the line' and then panning to the bulletin board from the school with the newspaper clipping.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Wow, this was great! I haven't heard of this show, but you did a fantastic job conveying both the drama and the epic war aspects of it. The ending left me so intrigued! Nice work.

The world at war feel was very strong, both the battles and the personal costs, and the ending was great.
