And hide your tears till my sights are out the
door.
It's hard enough to leave for a war I don't believe.
Would you fill up this gun melted soldiers,
it's the hand-made bullets that saved for the ring you wear.
And I'll be wearing mine through the war cries.
I won't let them tear it from my hands. The waiting is over.
The waiting is over and I tell her as I go that
"I'm coming back."
But I may not be coming back.

"Of course every soldier is
prepared
to die.
But these people aren't just pawns on a chessboard.
They all have names, families, and feelings in their hearts too.
They are all humans who live and bleed.
You have the responsibility to ensure their death will not be in vain.
No matter what may come, remember this in your naive heart,
And be ready to die to fulfill that duty."
I dream of giving birth to a child who will ask,
"Mother, what was war?"

A Twisted Game
War is like a twisted game,
you win, you lose - your fate's the same.
You'll end up strewn across the floor,
your body lifeless forevermore.
Your heart is dead, your skin like ice,
your tattered clothes, a home for mice.
Your friends are either dead or grieving ,
as your soul, hell bound, is leaving.
You died for your country, they say,
but you'd just like to see a new day.
Now your location remains a mystery,
no one cares, 'coz now you're history.
You died for them, you gave your life,
but no one knows your pain or strife.
You gave your life so they could live,
but a minute's silence is all they give.
War is like a twisted game,
it's all pain and no gain.
I think a man wearing a helmet defending his country should get
paid more than a man wearing a helmet defending a football.
Real Men wear
pink?
I beg to differ.
I know thousands upon thousands of
real men who don't wear pink,
they wear camouflage and protect our country.
