And the warriors went off to battle,
Leaving tearful loved ones behind.
They went off in answer to a vision.
Which the wise men planted in their minds.
That all men have been created equal
Meant to share all that life has to give.
And the right to do as he pleases.
To be free as long as he lives.
They had lived an empty dream
And in death they would be freed.
So they died for what they believed in
Leaving unfulfilled dreams behind
And those deaths have often been repeated
For the vision will endure all time.
Leaving tearful loved ones behind.
They went off in answer to a vision.
Which the wise men planted in their minds.
That all men have been created equal
Meant to share all that life has to give.
And the right to do as he pleases.
To be free as long as he lives.
They had lived an empty dream
And in death they would be freed.
So they died for what they believed in
Leaving unfulfilled dreams behind
And those deaths have often been repeated
For the vision will endure all time.
