As the canon's ceased to fire
and the muskets put on hold.
Slowly the smoke drifted away
and the horror started to unfold.
Soilder's were lying everywhere
on that field all covered in red.
The only one's that survived were
those that packed up and fled.
The hill was like an ocean
all covered in blue and grey.
No way can man forget
what has happened on that day.
How can a country be so divided
that families fought each other.
I pray we all learned our lesson
of war and that there'll never be another.
