Sons Daughters and Parents

Sons, daughters and parents She’s making lunch the kitchen Get the kids ready for school She goes to the grocery Comes home and clean the pool She does all the laundry Fold and pack in the draw She makes dinner in the oven Got Soccer practice at four He gets home at six Turns on the TV and grabs a beer Get angry when he sees s That She is not there Since he came back from Iraq He was never the same They send him in the fire But only she feels the flame And when she gets home He wants to starts a fight She put the kids to bed And kiss them goodnight Then he hits her so hard When she comes down stairs She fell down the to floor Her eyes fill with tears And she cries in silence As her mouth bled She thinks of the children Sound asleep in bed Then he attacks her She’s afraid for her life They struggle in the kitchen And he fell on a knife And now she is behind bars Until the case is done While in the white house New war plans has began The children are with her parents A happy family life taken away As the evils of war continues To call our sons and daughters today Let’s make our voices have an effect Calling for all wars to end And lets this be a world where no one Lost a son, daughter or parents again
