LAMENT OF THE FALLEN
We dont want your pity
We dont want your love
We dont want no sympathy
That is not enough
We just want you memory
So we did not die in vain,
So what we lost was worth it
So none must suffer again
We dont want no pity
Weve had that enough
We want you to learn from us
So we can rest above
