Perhaps I Will Never

Perhaps i will never come to understand
The wars about God and the wars about Land
From death in war zones heroes are made
And from history war memories are not allowed to fade
Another war hero was buried today
He died for the flag in a war far away
Not yet in his prime he was twenty one years
His parents and girlfriend and siblings by his grave in tears
For his friends and relations a sorrowful day
An army bugler to farewell him the last post did play
But what did he die for can anyone say
In a tribal war from his home far away?
And perhaps i will never come to understand
The wars about god and the wars about land.
