A Tear In The Sand
Eric John Parisano
Life there was so true to me,
But over here how could it be?,
Over here I wake on call,
When over there I had it all, |
Life there was so true to me,
But over here how could it be?,
Over here I wake on call,
When over there I had it all,
Deserted in this desert madness,
Filled with confusion, hope and sadness,
I long for tomorrow a time of joy,
But I fear for today, I'm only a boy,
Taken from my family and a life so grand,
And sent to war in a foreign land,
When all I know are books and dreams,
Now all I hear are shots and screams,
With anxious pride, for freedom, I fight,
Beside my country, the red, the blue and the white,
In this battle should I perish,
My eyes shall close defending the democracy I cherish.
