about

The Chant tells the story of a community being ambushed by a common enemy, and the sacrifice that community makes each day in effort to war off the enemy. If only the community banded together as a force, rather than wishing for someone...anyone else to fight their battles for them...

lyrics

THE CHANT
Written by Brea Robertson

Some are locked in chains
While others free to fly
Mine will be hidden
All day and all night
No chance can be taken
For the wolf has no heart
He will kill your darling ones
While the starts

We all chant together

Lying to our loved ones
The fear takes its place
Telling us to run
While the wolf prowls in haste
No this is our home
We will stay till we die
The next unlucky ones
Taken through the night

We all chant together
Ooooo
Who will stand up to fight?
Stand up to fight?
Ooooo
Who will stand up to fight?
Stand up to fight?

No one will escape
No not one will run free
Each will have his time
To face the enemy
Each hero will remain
In the hearts of those who wait
Knowing one day they’ll meet
At the mercy of fate

We all chant together

Ooooo
Who will stand up to fight for us?
Stand up to fight?
Ooooo
Who will stand up to fight for us?
Stand up to fight?

Ohhhhh’s
Ooooo
Who will stand up to fight for us?
Stand up to fight?
Ooooo
Who will stand up to fight for us?
Stand up to fight?

He looks out the window
At the teeth in the night
Knowing they will win
In victorious spite
But with the world chanting out
He takes his stick and leaves light
Its time to stop bleating and
Start to fight

Ooooo
He stood up to fight for us
Stood up to fight
Ooooo
He stood up to fight for us
Stood up to fight


He was the one that I loved
Gone to this day
