								| Memorial Day |  |  |  
					| We've Troops around the World Who put, their Life on the line
 And sometimes give their All
 For, Freedoms of yours and mine.
 
 But now, it seems much different
 We ask them, in another's name
 To Protect their Freedoms, too
 And Sacrifice, like it's the same.
 
 But, you can't give Freedom away
 It's something, you must embrace
 And it may not always work
 In, each and every time and place.
 
 We can't change centuries of life
 And ask our Troops to lead the way
 To place their lives in jeopardy
 Just because, the Politicians say.
 
 But now, that we are in this mess
 It must be seen through to the end
 And a Prayer said, for those who die
 Amongst those brave souls, we send.
 
 It's so sad at this year's Tribute
 We must add, all those Names we do
 With the hope, that someday
 All these Wars will be through.
