The Faint War

The war is going faint
Heavy guns and tanks, only symbols
Defend in silence

But the youth and children, dying
Their mind and soul, being worthless

Emotions uncontrolled
Rally along streets

Wall and message can't be conveyed anymore
Think tank didn't work, died in years ago

Proxy replaces the symbols
Works underground

Provocation is a modern gun, to dig up all reserve
To cut a thin line between prosperity and adversity, between lie and trust
In this faint war
