May 8

The war has come to an end

Look at how many have been shell shocked

And how many have bled

Look at how many were killed

This is not a game

Or a movie from which to be thrilled

This is real life

The stories that shock the younger generations

The stories that have shaped our nations

These are the veterans

And their lives really matter

They speak of a time so different from ours

They speak of a time we couldn't imagine

These are the veterans

Who built our world

When everything was better  

Have they helped improve our world?

I guess so, but look how much some of them still hurt...

Respect those who fought it in World War II.

They were of a much younger age, many were younger than twenty-two.
