Fallen Heroes

Never forget

the fallen heroes

youre a fallen hero
giving freedom to all
youre a fallen hero
who saved an iron rule

youre a fallen hero
who gave himself for the king
youre a falle hero 
whos memory we sing

youre a fallen hero
never reaching the end
youre a fallen hero
who sacraficed for a friend

youre a fallen hero
who put your life on the line
youre a fallen hero
whos medals we shine

youre a fallen hero
who wrote letters in fear
youreva fallen hero
signing off with a tear

youre a fallen hero
receiving thanks from  up high
youre our fallen heroes
are angels in the sky

youre a fallen hero
what would you think of it now
youre a fallen hero
a different world since your vow

youre a fallen hero
who fell amongst brothers
youre a fallen hero
who fell amongst others

a fallen hero
will never be looked in the eye
a fallen hero
no more tears he will cry

a fallen hero
never will see a sunrise
a fallen hero
will miss his babies poor cries

a fallen hero
will never walk on a sand
a fallen hero
on earth will not stand

a fallen hero
a child fighting a war
fallen hero
never asking what for

a fallen hero
freshly faced and unsure
a fallen hero
made to fight by a law

a fallen hero
scared of dying alone
a fallen hero
being marked as unknown

a fallen hero
with a place in our heart
a fallen hero
remembered for his part

a fallen hero
our countries bright shining star
a fallen hero
well never forget who you are

Yes, the world is saved and changed by fallen heroes (though too often they get forgotten by those who profit from their sacrifice - I am not a war monger in any way, but we may never forget...). Good write.
