I got off work and life was all it ever was
the night was darker than the night before
and my wife was sadder than the night before
and the land we called our own
was less our own than the night before
and the light grew nearer
but it was not the light of truth
the light grew nearer
and our land grew smaller
and my wife's tears were wetter on my shoulder
as all we held dear
and all we fought for
grew further away
and they said it mattered
that we protected our freedom
as we gave our land to them
and they kept the evil at bay
but the evil they spoke of
was the neighbors who stood for us
and so we cry together in the dark
my wife and I
and all we hoped for is gone
