Too Many
Daily we hear of death, and sorrow,
this war we are in, does not need to see
another tomorrow.
How do we get our troops out of there,
is Washington even trying,
or do they even care?
A game of chance it has been called,
walking into towns as they look for thugs,
betrayed by people they help, and trust.
Too long now, too many killed or injured,
too many far away from home, too many not
being home for their first child's birth, too many
will never play ball with their children, too many
problems have been caused by this war.
Now tell me, whose fault.
