Teach me and I’ll ignore what I’ve learned from the past
What purpose does it serve if I feel so distressed?
There’s no competition
But my mind makes me aware
Of all the possibilities
I hope that I can state
Death or glory
I’ll take the risk
No surrender
This is history repeating
But I’m on the edge
If this is war
Then where’s my enemy
So I raise the flag
And carry this burden
With all that’s left of me
And I’m looking down
Upon my battlefield
Whom did I fight for?
And what was the cause?
