A solider walked into town As the sun sank down Into the deep blue of the ocean There was a charge of emotion That you could almost see in the air As all of the villagers stared It had been twenty long years But those who remembered, remembered their fears From that long and terrible night When the rebels fought a ****** fight And this man led the opposition Who made the decision To **** all who were involved Before rebellion spread and evolved It was a foot note in imperial history And the commander was a mystery After the promotions, he suddenly retired Unable to comprehend what had transpired Now after twenty years he had returned Older, wiser, and more learned He went to each family and begged for forgiveness

Repentance
