wars....

Letting off some steam again....

Can you tell me father, why tears, they come to me
When I see young men returning, even though they dont see me
And tell me my favorite aunt, how it felt to see your son go
On a ship with so many young men, that didnt even really know

The reason for them fighting over anothers right to land....

 

Soldiers came back wounded, mental scars that will not heal

Soldiers that came back wounded, tell me just what did you feel

Did you feel remorse inside you, once you realized what you"d done

Did you feel justified in taking them, just as they"re lives thus begun

 

Some young men had married, they"re lives just been filled

Some had"nt even considerrd yet, and now some never will....
