Honor Never Dies Lyrics

Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone
Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone

When the limelight grows dim
And our heroes fade away
Some men still fight silent battles until their final days
Some will be forgotten having no one know their names
But I stand here grateful for the courage that they gave

[Chorus]
I am just a son
A brother, a father and a friend
No more, not any less
I am just another man still fighting
But I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t taught that
Honor Never Dies

When your heart is questioned
There are hearts with hope still beating
Waiting for footsteps that might not come
Born with nothing just a weight to carry through life
And the journey they are on

[Chorus]

When your heart is questioned
Honor never dies
When your beliefs are tested

Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone
Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone
Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone
Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone
Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone
Sometimes standing for what you believe
Means standing alone

Honor Never Dies

"When you do something honorable for somebody, it lives on through that person," Hatebreed lead singer Jamey Jasta says by way of explaining this track. He got the idea for the song when he was visiting his grandfather in a veteran's hospital. He was talking to another patient, and was later told that this man hadn't had a visitor in over a year. This is when Jamey realized that you could be a war hero, yet still die alone.

In our interview with Jamey Jasta , he explained: "I wasn't coming from a place of anger, but I'm screaming in this aggressive way. I just wanted to have it represent the passion I felt about the topic."

As this song was coming together in the studio, the band knew they had something special. Jasta says they took a different approach in writing it. He told us: "That's the first song that I suggested we do two different guitar lines and a different bass line - and never follow everybody playing the same notes. And I think it gives an interesting sound - we've never done that before as a band. It gives an interesting temp change and mood shift from the riff in the verse to the chorus."
