The Soldiers of Sacrifice
The silent surrender of sacrifice
Can sever the soul's inner pride
Can quench the thirst for suicide
of a secretly smoldering love inside
Can cure the sickening sound of sorrow
******* the life from today and tomorrow
Can show the side that sanctifies
and sweetens others' lonely lives
Can save the stricken who always hide
the last core of sanity deep inside
Can slowly but surely open the eyes
of fools and fakes who cauterize
and burn the good from all our lives
the sullen soldiers of sacred lies
who fight a war for no one's side
and wish for nothing otherwise
a slient surrender from sacrifice.
