Let us breathe deep the meaning of sacrifice,

What makes a man rush into a fire fight,

What gives courage to treat underfire,

What keeps us sane while we are bleeding in another country, fighting on the grounds of distant battlefields,

With our hearts so heavy that they can barely carry thier own wieght,

Let us not ask why we have to die,

Let us honor the fallen hero's

Let us hold hands and stand with one another

We will rise from this darkness, with new hope

In the midst of the explosions and light, take a moment of deep quiet silence....

Remember the blood that is spilled, so that those fireworks don't turn into the fire of war.

Remember the Sacrifice
