Give War a Chance

Battlefields filled with glory
An old and honorable dance
Fight with bravery, fight for God
Fight for the love of those left behind

Fight for freedoms, yet to be won
Fight for the weak, the children yet hung
Be brave, the battlefield is fierce
Many will fall in blood, piled on hells fires

Flowers grow upon dead heroes passed
And meadows sing of long lost loves
The winds whisper of wisdoms we long forgot
We are doomed to relive horrors, of dead soldiers

Fight tyranny, where ever it shows
To save millions, from the Emperors torments
If only brave men, take a stand
Can we save the lives, of countless innocents

Many are sacrificed for such a noble cause
Be that we save, many more, our future restored
The battles we fight, behind righteous causes
Are paid in blood. so that it is shed no more
