Take Our Turn

Looking down a young man’s seen
Wanting what’s past everything
He takes a knee to pray
A father trains his king to be
But it’s the night that he runs free
He walks along castle walls
And looks upon and there he’d give up it all

We lay our burdens down
Lord we burn ‘em to the ground
We take our turn and die
For our souls to come alive

He found himself in foreign land
No one else with him to stand but
The madman the drunkard and he
Together they went traveling on
Singing friends we have become
He turns to the call
He gave up it all

We lay our burdens down
Lord we burn ‘em to the ground
We take our turn and die
For our souls to come alive

He remembers this one time
When he saw a small child
For one moment give one
One small smile
And he thought that maybe
That maybe the smile was meant for him
That the smile was meant for him

We lay our burdens down
Lord we burn ‘em to the ground
We take our turn and die
For our souls to come alive
