Nobody Knows

They fought for our county through the war in vietnam
Way out in korea and across the dessert sands
So many went to battle
To keep our countrys free
And now we look away from them
though their fighting will always be

And nobody knows
Nobody knows
No body knows
What dangers lie beneath the vacant eyes,
of the silence of their screams, nobody knows

He sat upon the wall
His brethrens names beneath him spelled
The loss so great he didnt hesitate as his gun finished his fall

They quickly cleaned the area before anyone could see
No mention of this tragedy was ever for eyes to see

No body knows
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
What sadness lies beneath the distant stares
And the dreams still filled with screams
Nobody knows

This was an unfinished song I was writing. I just felt it needed to be shared, even unfinished.
