A War's End

I hear the gunshots in the air
With the sound of pure despair
Killing Canadians without a care
Wherever I look, its war everywhere

Soldiers falling one by one
So many die 'neath the clouded sun
I pray for peace, but there is none
It seems like war will never be done

Suddenly, I see white in the sky
It's a flag of peace, flying high
I'm so relieved, I want to cry
The war is over. I let out a sigh

We gather together and bury the dead
Soldiers are mourned. Humble words are said
We stand together as we march ahead
Knowing this is a story that will always be read.

"Lest we forget"
