We Cry
We cry for freedom
We cry for peace
We cry for this war to end
We cry for the lives lost through this struggle
We cry to hope it never began
We cry for the days gone by and by
For the soldiers who fought with both bravery and pride
We cry for all those sleepless nights
In hopes that they'll find a peace of mind
We cry fo the ones who were captured in battle
We pray they're not ours, but all hope rests in vein
We cry for the memories of our fellow soldiers
We cry for their return back home
We cry for the ones who wish to be saved
We cry for their fears and hopes to be brave
We cry for the pain that we can't feel
And just to imagine just seems so unreal
We cry that our hearts would understand
But then we realize we're only one man
We've cried and cried so many tears
For this war to end, we cry even still
