See their soft dewy faces lying in the mud.Hear their anguish through heavy air.
Is thousand upon thousand broken hearts not palpable yet?
Turn away from this monstrosity.
Remember the dead.
Touch their strong smooth bodies, shattered, still.
Taste their sorrow bleed eternal.
Is there no one to say no more, I say, no more?
Plead for the future they never had.
Remember the dead.
Touch their strong smooth bodies, shattered, still.
Taste their sorrow bleed eternal.
Is there no one to say no more, I say, no more?
Plead for the future they never had.
Remember the dead.
