Over the water I fly So be it Through these wings I see them Boys to become men Men to fall old Eyes to close for a countries fight Never to return Lest we forget
Billowing stacks of fumes fill me Thousands upon thousands of mini islands Floating away from their mothers womb Dunkirk's morning is ready Sand from the beaches in a foreign Glistening Waiting Offering a hope that there is a tomorrow Lest we forget
In the after much blood has been spilt To many decisions have faltered Yet come my demise from the great war My purpose came I know what these wings hold I know how they fly I know how they care For the next Lest we forget
Now as age creeps upon me I look back I see the failed,fighting staled to a shortened breath Redden eyes become my flooded floor A storm rages within me for the loss of our past For the waste of lost future For the pain that I've seen For the wars that I've witnessed For the love of pure greed
