No Escape

The voices of children, the cries of babies,
the explosions, the farewell scream of a good friend,
and the blood curdling cry of a woman being raped...no escape.

Bullets flying, explosions all around,
Shots fired, say goodbye to the enemy.
Till your fellow brother lay dead on the ground,
do you realize that it was an illusion.

What began as a love for the country, a war of pride,
ended in a never ending emotional battle,
filled with tears that rip you apart inside.
A war that can never be won.

What began as a war of duty and pride,
ended in a war made of lies.
Being in the wrong place at the wrong time,
thousands crucified.

The voices of children, the cries of babies,
the explosions, the farewell scream of a good friend,
and the blood curdling cry of a woman being raped...no escape.
