Shrapnel

Broken shields
And now the scars are healed
Still the shrapnel burns below

Ice and snow
The warm will never know
How the winds of winter cry

Days go by
And still
The past won′t die

And though the sight is clear
Still the war is all we see

Live to be
Enslaved among the free
All that's left is wondering why

Days go by and still
The past won′t die
Please tell us why

Broken shields
And now the scars are healed
Still the shrapnel burns below
Now we know
