Have you ever wondered if anyone rejoices the death of a loved one? How about a soldier?
Wait til they send your son home in a box.
Will you dance in the tears on the floor?
Rejoice in the name of your son.
Salute the name on the Capital wall.
Raise your flag in vicinity of your home.
Praise his name and dance by night
For all of his good deeds.
But now your there,
Standing on the edge holding a rose.
Drop it and smile,
Then walk away.
