Masters Of The Land

Bastard children hear the cries Of widowed mothers and groomless brides. The men bravely fight beyond their shores Adorned with weapons and colors of war. Beaches run red with no ground gained With each mans death comes family pain. The fight began at dawns first light The death lock continues into the night. Man after man they reach the shore Struggling through carnage and human gore. Hundreds will die all in vain The war they fight can not be sane. The battle is fought for the masters of the land And many have died for a hand full of sand. To these lords "men are just tools" To fight their wars win or lose.
