Vanity of War

I can't understand this War And how it seems to grow' Who understands the " Law' I wish I truly knew . There is no honor in dying, In killing or being killed Because there is no denying That someone gets a " Cheap thrill" Sitting on chair a alone And acting just like a king, You can't solve the problems of " War' By acting like ' Ho chi ming . War is death, to soldier's involved, And to their families too, When a loved one, dies in vain' And families share, in each other's pain . Let's pray for peace, for all of us , By joining hands together Wishing the "World ' eternal peace, With time to enjoy each other .
