Cry Quietly

Cry Quietly Cry quietly, cry alone. No one wants to see your pain. No one wants to hear your moans. You've killed your first V.C. today And lay shaking in the grass, Hoping the others don't see you! Praying that they'll just pass! Cry quietly. Tears that never end. Your girl has broken up with you, This war doesn't fit the trend. It's all 'Peace' and 'Love' back home. They don't want to hear about us dying, They don't want to hear how the wounded groan. Cry quietly. Cry for your fallen Brothers. They died so we could live. They died so we could make the 'trip' and still go home to see our mothers. There are not many men as brave as these. They died so Americans could still live free! They died so America could sleep at ease! Cry quietly. No one knows your plight. They didn't have to go there, They didn't have to fight! They don't know about the fear, They don't know about the sorrow' And they don't know about your 'ghostly' gear!
