Blood On Our Flag

There is a plot A coup of some sort To cut off all reinforcement All of our strength It came with some surprise But it stormed us how close they are Within our shadows they hide Wolf in sheep's clothing they are Grown within our shade Oh how can this be How can they plot so deviously How can they betray their blood How can they forgo our bond When did they change Where we ever truly bonded trepidation fills my heart I cry, I scream How can there be this much bloodshed How can we slay our brothers One's we swore to guard I fall to my knees I want to die by my hands How can there be blood on our flag
