Silently I accept the blame From accusing pale white faces Do they know that I can feel their pain In dreams I see transparent faces I yearn to leave this hellish land The pang of fear gnaws within To return to a life that was so grand But leader’s shackles chain me in I pray for strength in my final hour please my God make me stand To defy the Enemy’s flaming shower To face the act of Death’s hand By Jim Mcginnis 1982 62
