The Land Of The Brave

"The Land Of The Brave"

By dawns early light

All you know

Fades into night

By the rockets red glare

It becomes clear

That nothing was there

Bombs bursting in air

So alone

No one anywhere

In the land of the brave

But there was nothing

Left to save

I so valiantly swore

Until I realized nothing

Evermore

Hopes and dreams naught but haze

Lost to one

In the land of the brave
