60.000 Ghosts

You're tearing down this house of ours
You're tearing it apart
Say everything should end
And we should make a brand new start

But this is home
This is where the story starts
And when were gone
We will keep it in our hearts

The 60.000 ghosts or more
That in the garden lay
Was it not enough to bury them
Now you're taking them away

From this home
From this final resting ground
From this place
Where at last some peace they found

And when they're gone we must stay strong
Knowing we were never wrong

I can hear the train a-coming
With its whistles and its bells
It's going to damn fast to care
About the ones who dwell

In this home
This is where the story starts
And when were gone
We will keep it in our hearts

And when they're gone we must stay strong
Knowing we were never wrong

It's you and I, we'll make it through
There's nothing else for us to do
