lyrics

A Patriot Laid To Rest

It was a warm summer day,
but we had to bury remains
of a fearless patriot
who got in Death's way.
Not a cloud was in the sky,
the monuments were in sight.
The horses beautifully led
until something spooked them.
By time they came to a stop,
the casket had flipped.
Everyone moaned in fear,
but the patriot was not here
because ceremony
is for the living,
and our warrior
was already giving
back to the earth his body,
just as he'd done for his country.
