A Country in Peril Video (MV)

There's a rust in the fields and a chill in the air
Old barns creak with secrets they silently bear
Main Street's now empty the hearts turn to stone
In a country in peril we're feeling alone

Factories stand silent workers gone home
Dreams they once built now crumble and roam
The river runs dry where we used to find gold
In a country in peril the stories unfold

Oh where did the days of glory all go
When hard work and hope were seeds we could sow
Now shadows are cast on the lands that we till
In a country in peril the nights are so still

Kids leave for the city in search of their light
As old folks remember through tears in the night
The flag still flies high but it's tattered and torn
In a country in peril our spirit is worn

Neighbors pull tighter though the weight's hard to bear
Through hurricanes heartaches, and old-fashioned prayers
The soul of this nation is bruised but not slain
In a country in peril there's hope in the rain

Oh where did the days of glory all go
When hard work and hope were seeds we could sow
Now shadows are cast on the lands that we till
In a country in peril the nights are so still
