I am sorry but as i was listening to this song.
I realized it reminded me of Rei, so here I am sharing.

Enjoy :)


Standing on a hillside
Where the river meets the sea
White crosses without number
Line the fields of peace
Each one a silent witness
Staring back at me

Every cross a story
Of another place in time
Where young men thought it worthy
To give their life for mine
And for the sake of honor
Left their dreams behind
And for the price they paid
I'm forever in their debt
Their memory will not die
'Cause I will not forget

*chorus*

I will stand and hold my head up high
I will dedicate my life
To the glory of the ones who had to die
I will live, live what I believe
I for no one else but me
I will remember
That freedom's never free

It was on another hillside
Outside the city gates
Battle lines were drawn
As soldiers took their place
The Father watched in silence
As a cross was raised
With freedom drawing closer
He took His final breath
He drank our cup of guilt
And took the sting from death
Heaven's Finest Soldier
clothed in human flesh
And for the price He paid
I'm forever in His debt
The cross will never die
'Cause I will not forget

repeat chorus

I will walk free.
I will stay free.
I will live free.
I will die free.

Very nice. Attribution please? Also, do you know what inspired it? Reading the first paragraph immediately made me think of Normandy...

I have looked into the abyss, and the abyss looked also back into me.
Neither of us liked what we saw.
