Brothers love

"The Friendship Song"
  By Tyler Elwood

Once upon a time when friendship was devine
we marched on through the night
till we reached the end of the line

We stood as one together
never to surrender
untill the day we died
we thought to live forever

Now we stood alone
on the hill above our home
as smoke filled the sky
my heart began to cry

But my brothers knew my pain
and we fought on just the same
for all we loved was gone
all but the memories, we pushed on

down below the hill
the others began to kill
as the beasts scurried forth
intent to have their fill

the horde began to moan
as they marched on down below
their scream filled the air
as we struck them down with flair

its then we heard them clear
that which fueld our fear
for we knew the time had come
we knew it was so near

my brothers held me firm
for together we would burn
for in the sky we watched
as the bombs began to drop

the sea of fire came quick
the light cruel and thick
but in the end we saw
the station that waits us all

We wait side by side
the day after that we died
for the train to roll around
at the station outside of town

I hear her whistle blow
the train I dread to know
but in the end I smile
For my brothers made life worthwhile

We watched the train slow down
but then we began to frown
for why should we just die
when our fate was ours to decide

and as the story goes
if you listen close you'll know
the brothers left the station
and made their way back home

Their laughter in the wind
on a hill we talk and grin
for atop that hollowed hill
we live our lives again

in the end we know
we gave it our best go
but friendship is like magic
as the old saying goes
