There's blood upon the flag
no, it won't wash out
patriots and tyrants
of this, I have no doubts
Fathers mothers brothers
sisters daughters sons
no one as more another
all together now, as one
Living in a world
where honor is contrite
rising above the bar
brothers in arms, unite
Bring me back untethered
from places where I've burned
mind and soul so weathered
homeward, have I yearned
I've been there my friends
I've held the flag on high
all the way to the end
for those of us
who died

Thank you, for the opportunity :)
