Unknown Soldier Resign

Dean Omori
Language: English




World if you love me let me go
Known but to god and time
No more the architecture of man
Unknown soldier resign

My flame cold and frail
The ghost of my mother still cryin’
The last old man marched by today
Unknown soldier resign

But my symbol doesn’t cover the new bones
The forth war will be fought with stones

The centuries of men I can no longer bare
Not in my name, on my watch, not in my time
The quality of war now divine
Unknown soldier resign

So stand down as the hero of the dead
My use now only as chastity wine
My stone heart starved without love
Unknown soldier resign

But my symbol doesn’t cover the new bones
The forth war will be fought with stones

I am buried here alongside kings
Let me go I’ve served out my time
Into new wars without me you must ride
Unknown soldier resign
