A tale of defeat
A hopeless surrender
To war we went
All bloody return
Only to witness
The rape and pillage
At home,our own
Now brought with us
War to our door
Won't go away
Until life has fled
In defeat life retreats
To lands unknown
Taking with it
The love of many
The hatred of some
Now ended in killing
The ultimate end
The war that began
Could reach no end
A reckless delusion
It fed us now
That life not precious
Honour is priceless
Now robbed us now
Of both, War did
Humanity we lost
We lost our pride
Barbaric we are now
Vulnerable to savagery
Our thoughts not civil
War we have witnessed
Now can't return
To the old, peace
We are men of war
Too much have we seen
