Out here on this battlefield
alone and without love
Slowly dying
The stars fading from above
somebody please
find my arrow pierced flesh
save me from this pool of blood
Slowly flowing from my chest
my soul is starting to leave
departing from this fragile shell
sparking the question,
Will I rest in Heaven,
Or rot in Hell?
"Help," I scream
"Someone please save me!"
but it appears no one else hears
except the lonely spears
buried in the cold bodies
that surround me.
I feel my soul fleeing
My life slowly fading away
the sun is slowly rising
bringing with it the warmth of a new day
the war was won
but my life was lost.
My country is free
but free without me
my last breath is leaving
the beautiful sunrise
the last thing I see
forever burned in my dying brain
freedom was won
but at what cost?
my life was lost
my sole reward the arrows in my chest
forever on this battlefield
my spirit will rest.
