Moments Silence
By Kyshera
Words by James Kennedy
IN THIS MOMENTS SILENCE
AS THE WAR IS RAGING
ARE WE REMEMBERING
OR JUST FORGETTING SOMETHING MORE
AS THE ONES FOR WHOM THEY DIED
FOLLOW IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS
IF THEY COULD HAVE SEEN US NOW
WOULD THEY HAVE TURNED THEIR AIMS AROUND INSTEAD
PAPER FLOWERS FOR SENTIMENTS, AS FEEBLE
ANTHEMS SHORT AS OUR MEMORY
COFFINS BURIED WITH OUR BROKEN PROMISE
THAT THE LIVES THEY GAVE US WERE NOT IN VAIN
'COS NEVER AGAIN...
IN THIS MOMENTS SILENCE
WHEN WE SHOULD BE RAGING
HOW MANY TIMES MUST WE
SEE THE DRAMA BEFORE WE SEE THE TRUTH
THAT THE HEROES FOR THE FLAG
AS MARTYRS FOR RELIGION
ARE JUST SACRIFICIAL LAMBS
FOR ANOTHER MANS PRIZE
PAPER FLOWERS FOR SENTIMENTS, AS FEEBLE
ANTHEMS SHORT AS OUR MEMORY
COFFINS BURIED WITH OUR BROKEN PROMISE
THAT THE LIVES THEY GAVE US WERE NOT IN VAIN
'COS NEVER AGAIN...
