Brothers In Arms

Summary:

"It's written in the starlight, and every line in your palm." A Babylon 5 fanvid.

Notes:

This is a slightly updated remake of a vid I made back in 2005. (Yes, I feel ancient too.)

Still dedicated to Selena, with eternal gratitude for dragging me into this fandom in the first place all those years ago.

Lyrics:

These mist-covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be.
Someday you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn to be
Brothers in arms.

Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I have witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms.

There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones.

Now the sun's gone to hell and
The moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We are fools to make war
On our brothers in arms.
