Lyrics
(Verse I)
The morning dew still kissed the grain
Before the thunder crossed the plain
No warning carried on the breeze
No omen whispered through the trees
Far beyond the orchard rows
The weight of war began to grow
Three roads wound through field and pine
Toward a crossing marked by time
(Pre-Chorus)
Beyond the ridge, beyond the haze
Another force was on its way
Three roads winding through the land
Toward a fate no one had planned
(Chorus)
At the crossroads they were waiting
For a morning like the rest
Another road beneath the sunrise
Another order to be kept
At the crossroads silence settled
Over orchard, field and pine
And the valley kept their stories
Long after the reasons died
(Verse II)
No man moved across the plain
Only shadows crossed the grain
Like vipers basking in the sun
Waiting for the day to turn
Far away another line
Watched them through the morning light
Questions passed from mouth to mouth
No one knew what lay beyond
(Pre-Chorus)
Beyond the ridge, beyond the haze
Another force was on its way
Three roads winding through the land
Toward a fate no one had planned
(Chorus)
At the crossroads they were waiting
For a morning like the rest
Another road beneath the sunrise
Another order to be kept
At the crossroads silence settled
Over orchard, field and pine
And the valley kept their stories
Long after the reasons died
(Verse III)
One shot shattered morning calm
Lost among a thousand sounds
Yet before the echoes died
The valley came alive with fire.
The orchard branches splintered black
Against the glow of tracer light
The wounded crawled through blood and dust
Beneath the endless roar of night.
Helmets scattered through the grain
Beside the hands that once held steel
The crossroads kept their final words
And buried all they could not heal.
(Bridge)
The last shots faded with the sunset
Only embers marked the plain
When the wheat gave way to ash
Nothing there remained the same
Lamps still burning through the night
Waiting for a knock outside
Learning with the break of dawn
Someone wasn't coming home
(Final Chorus)
At the crossroads they were waiting
For a morning like the rest
Another road beneath the sunrise
Another order to be kept
At the crossroads silence settled
Over orchard, field and pine
And the valley kept their stories
Long after the reasons died
At the crossroads spring returned
To fields still scarred by smoke and fire
Yet the names remained unspoken
Long after the guns fell silent
(Outro)
Still the wheat bends in the valley
Still the orchards greet the dawn
And the crossroads keeps their names
Long after all the guns are gone
