Sparks that set ignition
Bullets that set separation
A soldier must head to his mission,
Though he'll lose his leg
And maybe get to a beg
The soldier stills fights chin up high,
Smoke to light the sky
Blood to fertilize the soil
Tears to keep them running
Vengeance keeps them surviving
And to one day revenge the killings,
But a soldier has to win the war
To create another war,
One he never anticipated for
But one he'll arise to fight for,
He gains his victory
But drains in his misery
Though he's a pride to the country,
He's dying out his immunity,
Victory of peace
Victory of vengeance,
Victory of laughter
Victory to disaster,
A child left orphaned
A wife left widowed
A world left to grief
As war left them stiff,
Victory to end fears
Victory to tears.
