Standing in the rain
Another year were here again
Lucky to be alive
Were here because you heroes died

Remember you? We cannot forget
Your sacrifice, in history set
To offer those who made it home
Freedom from a savage foe

What tortures suffered, heaven knows
From your blood spilt, a new world grows
But much as common man may like
Our leaders bring us back to fight

It is the greed, a fault of man
To take up arms and fight again
The glory that we once knew
Hard to believe, that it was true

Standing in the rain
Another year were here again
Since you gave your lives
There’s been more wars and millions died
