This is War

6 1 0
                                    

The screams are heard

The lines blurred

Bullets fall

Like the cities walls

Bombs explode

And fires glowed

As the roads erode

From the falling of feet

Of young soilders

From the newest fleet

Fighting another war

An old man dreamt up for them

We fight hard and long

Singing the song

Of failure and freedom

Which became all the same

To these young warriors

Bleed and read

This mountain of greed

As they beg

And they plead

As they indeed 

Misread

The concept of "freed"

We learn to fight

And not to light

This starry night

For it might ignight 

All this fright

No longer excites

These once reckless men

L.O.M
