Bit of a protest this one - followed on from the soldier's words in Duty

Death beneath my blade
A history I can't unfold
Unwinding towards me
Future staring me asking why

What am I but someone's brigand
Symbol of joy and hope
For this slaughter
For this

I want peace
To know peace
To understand peace
Give me peace

And not over the bodies
Of my friends
