Weathered Statues |
Weathered statues, tin soldiers that march in our parks |
Wrapped in yellowed newsprint, on their benches in the dark |
Faces fill with sadness, sorrow drawn from your nights |
Surviving on old glories but now the glory’s have died |
Lonely men who are tortured, once proud but now forgotten |
Gnarled hands hold canes, where guns were once before |
Taunted by the children whose parent’s lives he saved |
Forgotten by a state, whose leg in war he gave |
Silver gleams upon his chest, though sweat gleams on his brow |
Darker days and sable nights, who work upon his soul |
His honor flew away from him, like pigeons on the wind |
Spending his last pennies on cheap wine and sins |
But still they make the soldiers |
And soldiers still grow old |
Another day, another statue, falls out in the dawn |
Weathered Statues stil march on and on |
