Double Folly

Where we go, we know not Why we go, we know not They say we go forth Choice-less and guns shone, we head north Let the north our fate decide This war is folly Even a fool understands this wholly But this will not stop the war No reason will a-peace this war It's folly Why we fight, we know not If it's right, we know not Yet we fight Not minding our brothers plight Treating them like blight Oh what an ugly sight But if only, you would listen You would hear them cry Don't ask them why Because it was you who made them cry So why not try If you could their tears dry
