Fly your Flag at Half Mast

Fly your Flag at Half Mast

A Poem by empiethree
"

The Anzac (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) story is remenbered by Australians every year. These brave men and women died for us. As much as I want to expose what all the wars were realy about I still think they did a lot for our country. God bless

"

 

Fly your flag at half mast
 
If you feel pride son;
Take you’re hat off
And hold it too you’re heart
Our freedoms been put to the test, but it’s never fallen apart
So; thank god for our Anzacs their courage and their pride
Let’s pray now for the ones who lived, and the ones who died
 
So fly you’re flag at half mast
Commemorate our soldiers of the past
Fly you’re flag at half mast
Remembering brave men and women of the past
 
So if you feel proud mate, wear that badge with pride
They say you’re not a hero, cause you weren’t left behind
But you’ve had teers, you’ve seen it all
All that’s evil and bad about war
And you pray that what you fought for survives
So turn around and say;
If you feel pride son;
Take you’re hat off
And hold it too you’re heart
Our freedoms been put to the test, but it’s never fallen apart
So; thank god for our Anzacs their courage and their pride
Let’s pray now for the ones who lived, and the ones who died
 
So fly you’re flag at half mast
To remember the soldiers that passed
Fly you’re flag at half mast
No war is ever over, no peace will ever last
Fly you’re flag at half mast
To remember the soldiers that past
Fly you’re flag at half mast
To remind us mistakes of the past

Have a feeling I've heard similar lyrics. As there is so much material on this subject avaliable in Australia I would be naive to think that I havent somehow been influenced by another piece of ANZAC writting.
