Empathy French

Sacrificed biographies, unwillingly wilted on the roads
Batched and bundled in flourished rows

Sorrow is freed
Comfort is farmed 

No king reigns on the quality land
Leaders have protected territory 
Warriors, soldiers, your pride reigns liberty 

Victorious flags wiggle in the heart of the wind 
Prayers light the mourning and burn traitors skin 

No religion should peel our flesh to bone 
No God prophets a sole to be cold
