Take an army, guns and tanks,
Add revenge, anger and pain,
Mix with destroyed homes,
Blood, bombs, and betrayal,
Stir until you hear the cries of families,
Screams of children, and the roar of planes,
Cook until it's overflowing with depression,
Sadness and the death of families,
Serve with destruction,
You can taste nothing but pain and agony,
You know its done when there is nothing left.
