Through a Wilderness of Grassy Plains
THROUGH A WILDERNESS OF GRASSY PLAINS,
WHERE WAR TOOK PLACE
IN A WORLD OF PAINS.
OUR COUNTRY MEN, OUR FATHERS, SONS & FRIENDS,
SENT TO BATTLE IN WAR,
& WHICH BECAME,
THEIR EACH DEATHLY ENDS.
THEY WHOM FOUGHT FOR THEIR LAND,
OR SO THEY THOUGHT.
INSTEAD LED BY THE GOVERNMENTS CRUELTY
LAYING IN THEIR GRAVES,
NOW IN DEATH THEY'RE LEFT TO ROT.
OUR SOLDIERS HAILED HEROES FOR ACTING OUT WARS DEMANDS.
OF THEIR VERY OWN COUNTRYS, BASTARDING GOVERNING HANDS!
FAMILES LEFT BEHIND WITH THEIR GRIEF FOR THEIR DEAD
WHICH HAS COME ABOUT BY AN UNJUST CRUELTY BY THE GOVERNMENT LED!
UPON THE FIELDS OF MASS DESTRUCTION IN WAR.
TO THEIR VERY OWN DEATHS
NOW IN THEIR GRAVES THAT THEY FOUGHT FOR.
WHY DIDNT THEY LISTEN TO THEIR PARENTS INSTEAD
OF THAT BASTARDING GOVERNMENT THAT LEFT THEM EACH OF THEM DEAD.
IF I HAVE LEARNT ANYTHING IN MY TIME ON THIS EARTH IS ILL TEACH MY CHILDREN TO GIVE NOT INTO THE LAWS & GIVE GREED A WIDE BERTH.
