Forever Slient
For Marine Cpl. Barton Humlhanz
February 26, 1981- August 26, 2004
Beloved friend, now forever silent.
Forever Silent
What do you say to someone you\'ve loved
At the end of all things
When the sticks have all been thrown
And the guns have fallen silent?
What do you say to a friend you\'ve lost
At the end of all things
When the jokes have all been told
And the laughs have fallen silent?
What do you say to someone you\'ve never met
At the end of all things
When his breaths have all been stolen
And the world has fallen silent?
What do you say to the person responsible
At the end of all things
When his lies have all been told
And a generation of soldiers has fallen,
Forever Silent?

Forever Silent
What do you say to someone you\'ve loved
At the end of all things
When the sticks have all been thrown
And the guns have fallen silent?
What do you say to a friend you\'ve lost
At the end of all things
When the jokes have all been told
And the laughs have fallen silent?
What do you say to someone you\'ve never met
At the end of all things
When his breaths have all been stolen
And the world has fallen silent?
What do you say to the person responsible
At the end of all things
When his lies have all been told
And a generation of soldiers has fallen,
Forever Silent?
