The tragedy of war...
The tragedy of war,
ends not with those who died
for the tragedy continues
in fragile minds who did survive.
For those who's names appear
on brass plaque or marble stone
are the only ones amongst us
for whom war is truly gone
The survivors of mans biggest crime
their wars will have no end
guilt, despair and bitterness
their constant hateful friend
It's hard to feel like hero's
no matter what you say.
when you're torn by guilt
that you're not the one,
in that green field far away.
So I say to leaders of this world
this nightmare should be gone.
Please realize once and for all
that a war is never won.
