Keep it close

Verse 1

Flags fading up on the line

Morning news barely rings true

Easy comfort clouds our mind

Forgetting what we all once knew

Pre-Chorus

We all got a duty to bear

Gotta look up, gotta care

Chorus

Truth is the first one to fall

When we turn away from the call

Shadows grow tall

When we don’t stand at all

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, don’t let go

Keep it close, let it show

Verse 2

Letting silence sweep the street

Watching neighbors hide their eyes

Build a world of easy lies

While the soul quietly cries

Pre-Chorus

We all got a duty to bear

Gotta look up, gotta care

Chorus

Truth is the first one to fall

When we turn away from the call

Shadows grow tall

When we don’t stand at all

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, don’t let go

Keep it close, let it show

Bridge

Hold the line, don’t turn away

Every voice got a part to play

Truth fades in the black of night

Stand together, hold the light

Chorus

Truth is the first one to fall

When we turn away from the call

Shadows grow tall

When we don’t stand at all

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, don’t let go

Keep it close, let it show

Outro

Keep that promise in your hand

Don’t let right slip through like sand

Voices strong, we call again

Truth survives if we defend

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, don’t let go

Keep it close, let it show
