Unknown Soldier

from Main Street Milky Way by Michael McGuire

/

lyrics

Unknown soldier buried in the bush, Unknown soldier it’s not just news to you, He has stared into the blank eyes of hate, We cannot know his forsaken soul.

Unknown soldier sleeping with your pain, Unknown soldier your children never born, Deathbed marriage; bullet breeds with bone, A victim's prelude and a hero's epitaph.

Unknown soldier your name is all we have, Unknown soldier a rifle for your grail, Did you suffer the doubt that riddles war, Did you wonder if right was your might.

Unknown soldier; murdered or killed, Unknown soldier; cold to the price, What were your dreamings; your dateless worlds, Politics of blood have drained your heart.

Unknown soldier rest with your reason, Unknown soldier die not in vain, And if it turns out you did indeed, We’ll not stain your memory with this god damned shame.
