lyrics

Verse One

The line is poor I thought,
You couldn't bring yourself to talk,

The news is bad, your uncles passed,
Another crest flies at half mast.

A silent crown just took him, isolated grieving
A life and soul remembered fondly
Reduced to a numbered trolley

(Chorus)
Never held a gun or stood a chance,
A lonely death for a great man,
A special kind of grey that fills your heart and lungs
A wave you cant outrun
Be brave and save just one.

Verse two

He proudly fought in a global war,
its different this time, no bloody shores
So keep your selfishness and trite,
Make a change and save a life
