Tears Of Reality
TEARS OF REALITY
Long cold nights
And days spent alone
Our only wish
To make it home
For the faces of the dead
They haunt our dreams
And we can never forget
At least that how it seems
We do only our jobs
And let life take its course
But when night falls
We’re overwhelmed with remorse
For its when others lay down
And close their eyes
That I fall to my knees
With questioning cries
I pray to god for answers
I scream toward the sky
I drop to the ground
And there I cry
I cry for all the soldiers gone
And all the ones still here
So if you want reality
It’s found in a soldier’s tear......
