It's time that we lament All the ones that history forgets You're more of a man than anyone understands To lay your body in a world that's kind Being gentle is only a strength Where pure of heart could never be a crime The meek and fearful we will defend No ideology, morality, law or lord up above Where cowardice is courage So you have my love Lay the sweetest wreath at the feet Of the ones who have run You're hated 'cause your good More than anyone understood The deserter who wouldn't murder Let his heart illuminate Rest in peace we know you're someone Forgive us for we know not what we've done To lay your body in a world that's kind Being gentle is only a strength Where pure of heart could never be a crime The meek and fearful we will defend No ideology, morality, law or lord up above Where cowardice is courage So you have my love
