LEST THEY FORGET
WE LIVED HE AND I ON LOVE AND A SIGH
IT SEEMED A WORLD THAT CONTAINED HE AND I
WE TWO TOGETHER FOUGHT AND TRIED
NO ROOM FOR SORROW UNTIL HE DIED
HIS LOVE SO POTENT IT GAVE ME STRENGTH
TIME WAS NOT MEASURED IN EVERY DAY LENGTH
WHEN NO CHOICE BUT TO SAY GOODBYE
MY HEART WAS SORE PAST THE WANT TO CRY
NO FUTURE NO FOOTBALL NO BROTHERS NO KNOWING
FOR ME NO WATCHING HIM LAUGHING AND GROWING
A WHOLE LIFE LIVED IN A VERY SHORT TIME
IN MY LIFE TODAY STILL CLOSE AND MINE
CONSIDER THE ATROCITY COMMITTED AFTER
NOW THEY TELL US HE DID NOT MATTER
THESE PEOPLE WE TRUSTED WITH ONES SO PRECIOUS
HIDE AND CONTINUE TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS
