The Patriot
Who is he who protects our life?
The patriot, whom we often disregard
Why? His honor and love so rife
Living in a world of pure strife
The patriot gives all
Who is he who protects our life?
He protects not only just his wife,
But of all the people of his country
Why? His honor and love so rife
Images and experiences stick life a knife
We say "never forget" but most days we do
Who is he who protects our life
His training to the sound of a fife
Now he walks through the sound of blasts
Why? His honor and love so rife
When he returns, he is forced to live a slow life
He can no longer fit in with society
Who is he who protects our life?
Why? His honor and love so rife
