lyrics

No regrets
The words that break the bonds remain unsaid
No backward steps
Though we never could have guessed what lay ahead
But we forged that path together
Found ourselves along the way
Not led astray

(Chorus)
As we pushed against the system
In our own ways
Our personal anchors were cast away
We were learning to swim

We were criticised
But we were young and just exploring what we tried
Always supplied
Ingesting all we could and more besides
The love affair got deeper
The potions more advanced
But not out of hand

Marching on
Defending unknown strangers from the storm
Against the law
Charged at with beasts and batons amidst the war
The conviction gained momentum
As the ropes were thrown away
We were here to stay
