If it wasn't for them
women and men
you wouldn't be here,

but you wanna fly your flags
and beat your drums?

I know that we'll never know
how it went
how they spent the last lonely
minute
before they went over the top
and were up to their necks in it
but it's enough to know
that they did it.

I think and in all honesty
that we
should remember their sacrifice.
