Silver bullets cut through air Missing targets from the width of a hair The smell of death wafts around them all The continue to fight though their ready to fall Strong and loyal, they stay true to their word Even as the rocketing death count is heard Their boots strapped tight The mobilize in the night Protecting their wards like soldiers can Tired, wounded, and hardly can stand They bite through the pain to act so selfless It makes me wonder how we can be selfish A soldier may die Any way any time They struggle with things we may never find I salute to the broken soldiers The men who fought for their country The woman who fought for their rights The man with a bullet in his chest The woman holding him in his last minutes Salute to them for their sake It may be the last salute that they take
