Beat of the Drums
June 3, 2008
Don’t leave me behind
For my heart is too weak
For the sound of the drums
And the march of the feet
The fire of the gun
And the baby that cries
The news lady that smiles
To cover the lies
The numbers that soar
As the men go away
The women that scream
As they beg them to stay
The smell of the smoke
And the blood that is bled
The pain in the heart
And the tears that are shed
Don’t leave me behind
Promise me that you’ll stay
Don’t let the enemy
Take you away
