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
