Remember this

The nature of war reveals itself
Rapacious, Insatiable, starving
Consuming generations without mercy
Many times for reasons which are not
The slogans chanted as propaganda
Patriotism, Honor, and Glory
Come to be unrealized
Whether soldiers live our die
The status quo survives, reorganized
Along new lines drawn by horror
As we realize the very monstrous base
Within each and everyone of us
So, when you go advocating
Chivalrous campaigns and crusades
There are millions of young bodies
Souls you wish to extinguish
Just to satisfy your bloodlust
Excited by a distorted perception
