Carnage |
Sing to your sisters, your brothers are dead |
The army retreated, the soldiers have fled |
The carcass of nations lies out on the plain |
For many to question, but none to explain |
Such carnage, destruction |
They came in their thousands, to die for belief |
In a guardian of freedom, once branded a thief |
Led to their slaughter, to fight for their wife |
Trapped by a system that demands only life |
Such carnage, destruction |
The corpses are buried, the day may yet come |
When man reaps the land with a plough not a gun |
The sorrow of millions will be buried with them |
That demanded the death, not the life of those men |
Such carnage, destruction |
