We Fought

We fought them in the trenches, low We fought them in the sky To them, we came from the unknown Disguised by rising tides. We fought them in the sky, Ripped from this world in mid-air Disguised by rising tides As ashes fell from here to there. Ripped from this world in mid-air, this world has known no such hell as ashes fell from here to there; as tears began to swell. This world has known no such hell. To them, we came from the unknown. As tears began to swell, we fought them in the trenches, low.
