Fallen

To all of those who fell
on that unforgetable day
who paid the ultimate sacrifice
will always remain a hero to the brave.

We salute you
sending you on your way
we will always ponder
how much you really gave.

You live in our hearts to the end of our day
your story will never be forgotten
and will be told day after day.

you are all heroes, and on the highest perch you shall remain
