Poetic Justice Anti-war video... Song by David Rovics...
OUR WAR IS OVER by thepoetryman
We’re tending our graves Trimming back flowers While saying goodbye Praying our seeds Give `way and rise Hands grasping in rage Scraping at heaven Scratching at clouds Stomping in fury Over a world at war Tossing out cradles Singing sad odes Over the wounded and dead As we tread red hatred Down forsaken roads The dying no sound When war’s been tended And flowers grow down As courage is stirred Deep underground Our war is over It’s said and done Our battle’s complete It’s time to finish it To check this one off And scrape for peace
OUR WAR IS OVER by thepoetryman
We’re tending our graves
Trimming back flowers
While saying goodbye
Praying our seeds
Give `way and rise
Hands grasping in rage
Scraping at heaven
Scratching at clouds
Stomping in fury
Over a world at war
Tossing out cradles
Singing sad odes
Over the wounded and dead
As we tread red hatred
Down forsaken roads
The dying no sound
When war’s been tended
And flowers grow down
As courage is stirred
Deep underground
Our war is over
It’s said and done
Our battle’s complete
It’s time to finish it
To check this one off
And scrape for peace
