Granite Wall

Those that fell today shall be In solemn sculpture cast Always held in reverence In memory of the past Named in tribute forevermore The colours carved on the granite wall Folded flags awarded In the line of duty fallen Draped upon the coffin lid The banner never taken The regimental crest That still flies high No colours lost, the epitaph Attempt to take them and you shall die Named in tribute forevermore The colours carved on the granite wall Carved upon the granite wall Mankind on the brink of extinction Few now left alive - the human race denied Mourning The tragic loss Life cut short This broken column Immortal Names shall be Carved in stone Upon the granite wall
