We sent them all across the ocean

Many lives were taken

Well I didn't cry, I didn't know them

And I just looked on with no expression.

This land was once a home

Of friends and family

We used to know

They are all gone now

They are now gone

And for what I cannot tell.

Put down your banners and flowers

This war you've made won't last

Your country, just lines on a map

They're drawn up, they don't last.

The paper cities burning

The ashes fell like rain

But when the fire was over

Everything had changed.

The people come together

Reminds us we're the same.

Put down banners and flowers

This war you've made won't last

Your country, just lines on a map

They're' drawn up, but they don't last.
