The Price Of Civil War
The poor children who died that day
Boy, was it a price to pay
Soldiers murdering civilians for no reason
Except it was a price of war
Babies, women and children all died in fires
Or heads cut off, or tortured to death
Blood spilling on the ground in front of the Church
Homes being burned down to the ground
And the Church got the same treatment
That was a price in Civil War
Poor children everywhere heard about these deaths
They understood it could've been them
Babies, too young to hear this
Mothers, trying to keep the children from hearing the losses of the Civil War
Those soldiers who murdered had no heart
Some of them called it fun
Idiotic jerks killed innocents
Said it was a cause of War
But it's the price of Civil War
Poor humble spirits who died
Hope you live a better life up there
Up there in Heaven
