You Face the Heat

---

You face the heat, you face the wind

You face death and you face sin

---

Forgive us for our selfish words

Forgive us for our hateful world

---

Never lose hope and never let go

You feel it all but it never shows

---

Here at home is where you belong

And War is why we sing this song

---

“Dancing round a burning wood

Dancing round like no one should

---

Falling down, falling down

Falling up, and falling round

---

Devil dogs, and demon men

Demon children in the devil’s den”

---

The sand is coarse, the rocks are hot

The war is something you never thought

---

You miss your home, you miss it all

You miss your friends, you miss your mom

---

Bombs are here and bombs are there

Bombs on bodies, bombs everywhere

---

A single command and here we stand

A million voices finally understand:

---

“We're dancing round a burning bush

Dancing round in one big rush

---

Falling darkness, falling night

Falling angels, failing light

---

Devil dogs, and demon men

Demon children in the devil’s den”

---

But no one’s listening, no one cares

Destroy the world! destroy our heirs!

---

There’s nothing left to label,

Nothing left that’s able

---

Grief is all we’re allowed to know

But you never, never let it show…

A/N: Another little poem... I seem to be very politically motivated today.
