Waging War and War Wages
Blood on the Battlefield
Casualties are many
The enemy refuses to yield.
Waging War and War Wages
A taut bow stretches back
Arrows start to hit their mark.
A lethal wound starts flowing black
Death turns the Battlefield quite dark.
Waging War and War Wages
A poor vet steps on a mine
As his mangled legs refuse to let him flee
All he can do is whine.
Waging War and War Wages
Bullets strike a guy in the chest
And his body goes cold
As he dies on the side of the road.
Waging War and War Wages
In Iraq an IED [Improvised Explosive Device]
Creates a deadly blast.
It killed thirty some-odd people
Whose lives weren’t meant to last
Waging War and War Wages
Roads are covered in Gore
Blood and Violence are in history’s pages
Battles ought to be shown the door… (tbc?)
