" "
In this proud land we grew up strong;
We were wanted all along.
I was taught to fight, taught to win;
I never thought I could fail.<p>No fight left or so it seems;
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted.
I've changed my face, I've changed my name,
But no one wants you when you lose.

Let it pass, let it go, let it leave.
From the deepest place I grieve.
This time I believe
And I let go...
