What's lost in the war

When you fight wars
for as long as I have
you learn to face your fears
and to endure with courage.

Courage can only be felt,
when there is fear,
when you lose your comrades
and death is everywhere.

Your heart will not stay strong,
your soul will surely break and crumble.
They'll call you hero of war,
but you also lose a part of yourself.
