Remember all those who fight for us
Eager to meet friends and family
Memories of war may haunt them for life
Earthquake’s may strike but they still fight
Mothers and fathers are at home scared
Brave men and women
Running away from bullets and war
Anxiety to go to war
November 11th a day to praise them
Crying while in pain by bullets and blood
Elaborate plans to stay alive
Day after day, just trying to share peace
All people in the army once had their life at stake
You gave us our freedom so we give this day to you
