War and Peace, by lance Subscribe to rss feed for lance

I've felt the path so many have taken
some don't make it home become unforsaken
lives unseen ever again so many times i've
lost a good friend

i won't tetter or let my steps fall i'm
 one of the few who gave it my all
under a flag a banner of peace this
thing called war refuses to cease

the bombs i hear now they draw ever so near
my bullets are lined in a row of death don't
ask my number i will not confess

on the day i come marching home i do so
with pride but i do so alone
so many lives have i seen fallen this
thing called war came calling no
longer will i fight for you now

i must make it home...this much i vow.
