War has no gains to offer (Remove filter)

Sacrificed to the Gods of War

When it is taken

Your want becomes stronger

Only this time freedom

Demands a high price

Homes empty friends taken

Despair and suffering prays

Sacrifices are increasing daily

Men, Women, Children, Families

Peace for those left

Freedom to right wrongs.
