The Great War

The Great War
Loves' hard battle lines
Are frozen there in time
Mighty armies clash
Steel and blood, an awful crash
An endless war

I fought so hard and brave
To prove I was no slave
My chains betrayed my lies
It carried in my eyes

Chorus:
There's just one question
I have for you
Do you cry sometimes,
Is that what you do?
When you hear my guitar
Playing in your head
I remember all the pretty things you said

2nd Verse:
It seems forever now
I wore my amour proud
Battle flag flying high
Never stop to wonder why
This endless war

So who has really won,
As we fired our guns?
Betrayal my battle cry
So justified was I

3rd Verse:
This morning came to me
Sweet sounds of birds that sing
Remembered there you stand
You held it in your hand
And I wished it was me

Up to this moment now
Kept to my steely vow
Fight on until my death
But now I do confess
I missed you for a moment there
