Shadowed Life

Wardrum pounded and signed the hordes Battalions gathered and prayed their lords The war started and lasted years Pain was there but they hided their tears Death in the woods and bombs in the air It slaughtered the innocence that once was there They fought like beasts and many of them fell Ceased to exist in the frontline hell They stopped showing their emotions, those dulging eyes Left only the fear of death from the skies See a dying soul in that distant flare And the child inside has been left alone to die Look closer to see he doesn't care For they came here to battle and not to cry
