Soldier's Requiem

And so it begins - that some things last forever

This spirit endure - the courage that failed them never

So let valor erase - the lies that sought

To deceive them.

And so for now - I see it very clearly

A soldier in time - knows just what he holds dearly

And so it became - that time was not on their side.

And yet it remains - until we breathe our last breath.

Like tears in rain - there is no shame in your death.
