Where Youth Are Sent To Die
War is a place where youth are sent to die
War is a place where lovers kiss good bye
War is a race where even winners lose
War is a race where all sentiments fuse
War is a case where savages are bold
War is a case where ravages take hold
War is a trace where dark emotions steal
War is a trace where scars are left to heal
War is a chase where obscure ends obtain
War is a chase where discontents remain
War is a face where hatred blacks the eye
War is a face where tear drops never dry
