THERE'S NO STRENGTH BEHIND A KNIFE!

Fallen Soldiers
Here's to the fallen soldiers,
of the the war that's on our street,
A thousand souls sent searching solace above,
now they've escaped this cold concrete
Here's to the fallen fighters for love,
Who died in search of life,
It's time that we increase the peace,
There's no strength behind a knife
Me, I was lucky to escape before long,
I had to leave my brothers behind,
They were left still singing the same sad songs,
In the same old daily grind
Now theres 6 dead boys that I used to know,
All killed in a 4 month spell,
The streets I'd roam, the greying town I'd call home,
Has been condemned by God, to hell
The path I used to walk to school,
Now leads to a darker place,
Where hooded men shrouded in sin
Remove emotion from your face
When these men meet no mercy and die,
In hell they shall surely burn,
for all the times they heard the lesson,
they never chose to learn
Here's to the fallen soldiers,
How many brothers do we have to lose
How many men in the million man march must drown
With this towns forced on concrete shoes
Here's to men that were snatched from this world,
And their mothers who live with strife,
It's time that we increase the peace,
There's no strength behind a knife
