War

Drifting through the untouchable plains Dead men's souls, so many pains It stings to see the world alight "Here take a gun, come join the fight" I find it hard to comprehend The distance we go to kill and fend What we call justice is just a mask For the truth lies untold, impossible task Families scorned and left torn apart In the rubble of war, the still beating heart
