Hills To Die On 

These battles I wage 

And The tears that are shed 

All Belong to me. 

I stand against the foe  

Battling for my cause. 

It is just, so I never pause. 

I have died on those hills   

And some more over here.  

Look, there too…  

Have been dead many years  

Though you will never hear  

I am wounded by your words 

So bravely carry on.  

For my sword is unsheathed  

And now broken in two  

This battered shield  

Wards off many a blow 

I will never yield 

My blood is in this field 

A committed fighter  

Of many wars  

All unwon 

Defender of every hill
