The Final Battle

THE FINAL BATTLE - Written by Carroll Bryant


Why does it have to be like this?
I wish we didn't have to kill
But we fight for what is right to us
I know we always will

Raise the sword to battle your brother
Would you strike it against your mother?
For all its worth we all can agree
The final battle will end foolishly

Surviving soldiers walk away with bloodstained skin
 Wounded, and smelling the stench of the dead
The memory that each of them will share
Is embedded inside of their heads

The cries
The pain
The misery
The scent of lost lives 
Confused

The battle ground of the final battle
Will never again be used
