WAR

The effects of War

Where winners are losers
And losers are lost
Revolution means nothing
When lives are at cost
And somewhere lights are shining
Rewards are being reaped
While others mourn loved ones
And candles burn for those who sleep
Rivers start flowing
When was is over
And bridges are burnt over, the
Return of our soldiers
