THE LAST MARCH HOME

**[Intro]**
*Drums in the distance*
*Boots upon the stone*
*One by one, the banners fall*
*But we still march home*

**[Verse 1]**
Morning came without a sun,
Smoke was hanging in the sky,
We were young when this began,
Now we're too tired to ask why.

Letters folded in our coats,
Names engraved beneath the rain,
Every road we thought we'd know
Has become a road of pain.

**[Pre-Chorus]**
Commander calls,
The silence breaks,
We raise our heads,
For one last sake.

**[Chorus]**
**MARCH! MARCH! THE LAST MARCH HOME!**
Through the ash and broken stone!
**MARCH! MARCH! DON'T LOSE THE LINE!**
Your hand in mine, your heart with mine!

If the road should take us far,
If we never see the stars,
Let the drums remember why
We kept walking through the night!

**[Verse 2]**
No grand speech and no parade,
No shining medals waiting there,
Just the footsteps of the lost
Following us everywhere.

Captain whispers, "Keep them close,"
Someone laughs to hide the fear,
For a moment we're not soldiers,
We're just friends who made it here.

**[Pre-Chorus]**
The signal sounds,
The flags rise high,
We take one breath,
And step outside.

**[Chorus]**
**MARCH! MARCH! THE LAST MARCH HOME!**
Through the ash and broken stone!
**MARCH! MARCH! DON'T LOSE THE LINE!**
Your hand in mine, your heart with mine!

If the road should take us far,
If we never see the stars,
Let the drums remember why
We kept walking through the night!

**[Bridge]**
One drum for the fallen,
Two drums for the brave,
Three drums for the names
That the battlefield gave.

No kingdom lasts forever,
No empire stands alone,
But somewhere beyond the smoke
There is still a road back home.

**[Final Chorus]**
**MARCH! MARCH! THE LAST MARCH HOME!**
Hear the thunder, feel the stone!
**MARCH! MARCH! WE'RE NOT ALONE!**
Every fallen voice is known!

And when the final trumpet cries,
We'll leave the battlefield behind,
Not as heroes carved in gold,
But as soldiers who came home.

**[Outro]**
*Drums slowly fade*

**March... march...**
**The last march home.**
