Spectre Of War

[Music: Garcia / Peck, Lyric: Peck]

My last drop of blood has fled from my wounds

Now I'm returning to dust

For glory and country I've given my life

Now I'm just a memory lost

Memory lost

My last living thoughts they flash through my mind

As I see in the distance a light

I summon my last ounce of strength bright

Lead me to paradise

Hear me my love as I call out your name

Call to you for the last time

find solace and comfort in knowing the truth

The truth that this is not goodbye is not goodbye

My heartbeat is fading

My vision is weak as I lay amongst bodies and sand

Violence and love are both gifts from above

But war is the folly of man

All shield your eyes from the spectre of war

Justice is blind but not for the spectre of war

Tyrannic designs raises the spectre of war

Haunting our minds is the spectre of war
