lyrics

When the strong fall from their great heights,
Doors open to a great new world,
And forces redemption of our kind,
At least in the hopes of the moment.

And what has failed us before,
Will rise again to hold us back.
Shackles that chain us to our walls,
Lock our blood-stained arms in place.

We are only human.
Our cherished freedoms are destined to fail.
And though we walk this Earth as free men,
Our fears always enslave our soul.

Even empires built of gold,
Will one day fall back to the Earth;
Its grand palaces laid out,
As lonely ruins upon a hill.

Our desperate, hurried lives,
Will mean nothing then to those who live
A thousand years from this time,
As theirs will to their descendants.

We are only human . . .

Even empires built of gold . . .

Guardian Eagle Schellsburg, Pennsylvania

Guardian Eagle is a music project founded upon the undying love of freedom and hard rock/heavy metal.

This project is completely done by just the two of us and it can take some time to complete albums. We both have jobs and lives outside of this project but try our best to steadily work on creating music.

Our music is free for you to download. No physical copies are currently available. ... more
