We look over the fields of the fallen

stone roses rising

in place of those lost

some in payment for the cost

of peace and stability

while it was the leaders responsibility

they are nowhere in this rock garden

instead they have their own history written

and altered twisting the truth

until there is no such thing as accurate proof

and we are left being spoon fed their stories

that give people their choice collection of histories

long past and their reasons forgot

and instead of being a dark blot

on the history of countries and men

it is cemented through ink and pen

an inescapable degradation

on the value of life with no regulation

on the deaths of the young as they are labelled heroes

and survivors coming back and bombarded with psychological blows

and this is what everyone then looks up too

and no one cares if its true

they only defend the lies with unrivaled passion

and no sense of the loss that requires compassion
