I Died for a Dream

Visions of War

I died for a dream tonight
it is true.
I died for a dream tonight
a dream of you.

I saw you in battle
sword raised in hand,
I heard you're glad welcome
as you took your stand.

Many had fallen
they fought by your side,
the enemy had fled
with nowhere to hide.

Bloodied but not beaten
you raised your war cry,
With tears in your eyes
but I did not know why.

You stood with head bowed
to the many who bled,
You put a survivors cross
on each ones head.

Even though you had won
you felt the horror,
There is no winner
when it comes to war
.
I died for a dream tonight
yes this is true,
When the smoke cleared
no one was left but you.
