War

(Song lyric)

In the wind that blows so cold,
The veils of a million widowed.
All float upon the same side
As the myriad tears do fall
Of a million sorrows fall
In one stream glide
In one stream glide
You’re on the same side.

Divided sons fight on fight on
You lacerate humanity
And tare apart the earth
And create such hostility
In vain, such misery
When will you learn
When will you learn
You’re on the same side.

In the earth
In union
As one
One hope, one faith abide
The brothered dead lay cheek to cheek
Their bones slowly turning to dust
Their bones slowly turning to dust

What would they say
What would they say
They are no more…..
