As It Was, It Is Still

The sun rises from the East as it always does
Another meets death as it always did
The sun goes down in the West as it always does
What will tomorrow bring is the question as it always was.

Start work at morn as we always do
Another meets death as it always did
End work as dusk approaches as we always do
We are still alive aren't we is the question as it always was

We worry for the safety of our children as we always do
Another meets death as it always did
Our worries fade when children get back as they always do
Who kept them alive is the question as it always was

Soldier, patriot wakes up to another day as he always does
Another meets death as it always did
A family moaning and weeping for the lost one as they always did
The patriots are fighting, what are we doing here, is the question as it always was

The Government is right again as it always is
Another meets death as it always did
We believe what the Government said as we always did
Who are we to believe is the question as it always was

Explosion! Run! Lets see! Says one as he always did
Another meets death as it always did
Frailness of mind takes another life away as it always did
The toll has risen, why is that is the question as it always will be
