The poppy fields lament
Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line In this world of madness I was never taught to swim So now I drown in insanity With these emotions I hold within Wish upon a shooting star In the hopes your dreams will come true One person’s dreams another’s nightmare You can’t separate the two You can’t separate the two Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line And the solders are prophets and poets For the children not yet born But no one will ever remember our names Until there on the stone And when this war is over And the red has mixed with green They will bury us in the poppy fields To hide what we have seen To hide what we have seen Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line And what do we say to the orphans The reasons for our wars When we fight for a king and country Not knowing what the killing is for As I lay here under the moon In my final place of rest The church will send me prayers To say that I am blessed Your church will send me prayers To say that I am blessed To say that I am blessed But my blessing is this Hey The bullets are flying I’m I really dying But I feel fine Yes I feel fine And did you discover You have a brother Who’s dying on the line? Dying on the line |
