What's so great about war I never understood this before Young men die and women cry a destruction of all that's gone before What's so cool about death a taking of a loved one's breath but nations fight, to show their might bringing about change, will bring new depth What's so good you must go and leaving me behind, grieving so how can I pray you'll come back to stay knowing you leave others on the field of woe. Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |
