By Travis Jenne (1988- )

Tears fall down the faces of the fathers and mothers,

Tears fall from the eyes of the sisters and brothers,

Tears rain, with every wife made a widow.

Tears fall down to the earth as each shell hits,

Tears fall from the mouths of gassed soldiers,

Tears rain, with every step taken in war.

Tears fall down each red bayonet

Tears fall from every fallen comrade,

Tears rain, in the form of blood.
