Casualties of war.

In the war,
The dieing words of a soldier,
I love you.
And it rains,
Down in her arms,
He lays astray.
Away from her.
Looking away from her eyes.
In the casualties of war,
The door stands ajar.
The sounds of bullets,
But for now.
Its the silence before the storm.
Silence before the tears,
In the ruins,
The façade of this place.
Covered in blood,
For its now or never,
Tears for the kids,
Who don't ever want to be there.
In this war, giving up everything.
Just don't,
Let them have the last word.
Not now, let them go on.
Hand them the water guns.
Theres only much that mind bears.
With the bullets and blood.
You're spoiling the generation.
In the casualties of war.
In all fair.
In love and war, its all fair.
