What must be done

A price must be paid.               
Sacrifices must be made.           
In order to satisfy
In order to save                           

The sound of blood dripping onto the ground
Reminds me of a clock ticking
The yellow flag
Reminds me of a chrysanthemum swaying

The pain is suffocating
It's hard to breathe
Feels like I'm buried underneath

I want to sleep
I want to forget about everything
I want to protect my ears from all the battling 
But I can't
My hands can't move
All my energy has been used

Fighting a war is like racing on an obstacle track
You can't stop and you can't slack
Did I do that? No I didn't

A price must be paid
Sacrifices must be made
In order to satisfy the leader
In order to save my people

How does it feel to be dead, I wonder?
Will I finally know the answer?
