In War
When it comes to war
This is what makes me sad
To see those men die
Before they've lived enough to lie
To see the young men at the age of 13
Struck down again
Blood ozing from his scalp
Only to black out
Never to see the world again
Many die
Somehow
It is no crime
For war is merceless
Evil
Torturous
Deadly
And most of all
Beautiful
To see the blood seep from our enemys
To watch them cumble at our feet
To see the way the light leaves their eyes
Thats whats in a war
Thats whats drives nations to fight
To see their enemies die
This is what makes me sad
To see those men die
Before they've lived enough to lie
To see the young men at the age of 13
Struck down again
Blood ozing from his scalp
Only to black out
Never to see the world again
Many die
Somehow
It is no crime
For war is merceless
Evil
Torturous
Deadly
And most of all
Beautiful
To see the blood seep from our enemys
To watch them cumble at our feet
To see the way the light leaves their eyes
Thats whats in a war
Thats whats drives nations to fight
To see their enemies die
