Recuperate, regroup and wait
for this isn't a battle,
it's a Hundred Year War
and each inch of ground
is sorely earned
as dreams die alongside you
and some friends don't return,
as the horrors of war take their toll
on your beliefs and on your soul,
for there is only so much anyone can hold
before the weight of the World buckles their knees
Which of us has not seen this to be true,
how do you carry on,
what sees you through?
If only, my friend, you could be me
and i could be you for just one day
then maybe we would both understand
but for now i don't think that power is within my command
As the millenia pass will my soul still last,
will it always question, will it always ask
will it never know any more than now
am i asking the wrong questions, somehow?
