why would he want to be?
the pain it is to carry an emotional weight
around everyday
never consoling always just controlling
tears are made for no-one to see
trust can't be given to the weak
our lives are not front page news
but under tabloid banners we parade
in another tirade of justified lies

fighting a man made war
abroad and home without a doubt
how this will be won
more lives are lost of another innocents cost
the trust has dried up
and no more can be bought
i am not a can of oil
something must be done
