Can we give a moment now to those who died
Called cowards in their own country.
More brave than me
These martyrs for peace
In a world bent on destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shot by their own for believing alone
When war could stop with one word from a despot.
Now we\u2019re standing eye to eye in our enemy\u2019s land
It\u2019s a long way to go for salvation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It seems folly to me that just one man\u2019s deeds
Decides the fate of a nation
But it\u2019s unlucky for them
We\u2019ve got peace on our hem
And will protest war on every occasion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Belief in ourselves and those in the hell
Of conflicts far and wide
To just stop for now would feel good.
Let\u2019s get round the table and eat while we\u2019re able
And we\u2019ll look within for the power of peacetime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
