[Verse]
Where life moved slow
Where all of love was stored
Where air turned poor and dull
Our dreams lay, scarce of hope
Where we were spared by chance
No life left to demand
Where a numbered piece of iron
Distinguished man from man
[Chorus]
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
[Verse]
Where joy no pose could hold
Was every letter wrote
To home, to love, our mother, God:
A Book of Many to be told
Where the graves, they formed a heap
Where we walked on shattered feet
Where the sky, it missed the bird
'Defend the ashes,' was our creed
[Chorus]
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
[Verse]
Where defeat was of several kinds
We stood tall in different lines
Where the price was hard to deny
There was no reason – why?
[Chorus]
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
Out of the darkest hour
Comes the silence
Aah, aah, aah, aah
Home at last
