Though they to the forever are long gone
The ancestral genes in us are living on
We may not visit where their bones do lay
But their genes are alive in us today
They are remembered when the army bugler The Last Post does play
For they too fought in wars in places far away
And to honor them many a street parade
But we never learn from the mistakes in life they made
Like us of their Nation's flag they were proud
And some of their comrades fell where the war guns echoed loud
The war supposed to end all wars ended almost a century ago
And the enemy then is no longer a foe
For we have new enemies to fight today
We never learn with us it seems this way.
