Red Kite Dove

On a Christmas morning long ago
The battle of ages was fought
In came a man who took a stand
For his army to win the war
The ruins of cities paint a picture so dark
It corrupts my mortal brain
And terrored trenches wipe out villages
To sleep on the churchyard again

Another day a hundred die
Letting out forgotten cries
Is it never enough?
Another red kite dove
Despair is disrepair
Sacrificed with no care
Families out of love
Another red kite dove

Undemocratic dictators signing the papers
To send some more children to war
Another battalion massacred as martyrs
Their mortal corpses remain
Those who died in the war have been forgotten
Souls never signed up to rest
And their weeping mothers' cries were ignored
For a million lives met their end

Another day a hundred die
Letting out forgotten cries
Is it never enough?
Another red kite dove
Despair is disrepair
Sacrificed with no care
Families out of love
Another red kite dove
