Dunes of War

Traveling these desolate lands In awe by the beauty of it all This land that so many Have claimed their own For the sake of power Wars fought for the sake of what? A God that doesn't seem to give a squat Not knowing if they should or not While their friends are left to rot While a blood red sun Sets on these lands Friend and foe lay down Gun in hand What do they see when they They close their eyes? The peaceful future they want? Sometimes I think about the tales The tales that these dunes could tell About the people who lived before And the blood that's been spilt on the sands Would the tales be about a search Another search for glory and all of the fame Or would it be just another tale A tale of man's pointless search for glory? While a blood red sun Sets on these lands Friend and foe lay down Gun in hand What do they see when they They close their eyes? The peaceful future they want?
