Black Granite

Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all
 Forever remember, never to crawl
 You gave what you could give
 while we gave it all
 and remain unacclaimed names on a wall
 The slaughter and torture we feel in your eyes, the years and the fears
 the orange colored skies
 We gave all for nothing,
 and weren't you surprised,
 all for old glory, without knowing why
 Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all
 Forever remember, never to crawl
 You gave what you could give
 and we gave it all
 and remain unacclaimed names on a wall
 The heart blood of youth
 runs cold through your veins
 Still searching for truth
 And finding nothing but pain
 You keep pounding the tracks like
 a runaway train
 While the war monger's hunger
 tastes blood again
 Black granite, so silent, cries out to us all
 Forever remember, never to crawl
 You gave what you could give
 while we gave it all
 and remain unacclaimed names on a wall
