Listen to us of the eternal night

Under the Poppies we now lie
Our spirits beyond you now doth fly
In clear skies on wing of Dove
While body rots away from world above.

Listen to us of the eternal night

Hopes of a full life lived long
Flew even though we were strong
For that time has passed us by
Now it is really our turn to fly.

Listen to us of the eternal night

We went and fought
But was it all for naught?
In foriegn lands far away
Where evil times killed child at play.

Listen to us of the eternal night

War is on the rise again
Out where others have lain
Down their lives for civilisation
After taking pride in the glory of a nation.

Listen to us of the eternal night


You give us Armistice Day
Where those that did stay
Make stories of our lost glory
Ignoring our terrible but true story.

Listen to us of the eternal night

When will you learn
the other cheek to turn
Two wrongs make no right
We who know, who drown in eternal night.

Listen to us of the eternal night
