War and Peace

Hearts and souls on the front line Baits in battle to our enemies Driven to excess emotions of fight and flight Back to the hum drum of 9-5 wouldnt you try and hide? Their old jobs gone with no war however they are greatful for the reprieve That job is still not our normal every day life That job is to serve their country and queen The rest of us get up because we have to go to Or because we work Or because we cant sleep we feel bad Yet imagine the life of that soldier Battered Bruised to contempt To the brink Emotions charged violence and war How many times do they have to tell you It's Peace not War Yet brains are fragile emotions are high They come back in their coffins from the sky Brothers and Sisters in Arms So Brave so Bold How and what a story could be sold Be strong x
