Today we say goodbye to the fallen thirteen
There’re from the Navy, Army, Air Force and Marines
Our hearts are broken on this Veterans Day
The pain in our hearts will never go away
A coward killed them in the name of jihad
A man who dishonors the name of Allah
For a true God would not tell you to kill
For a true god will only show goodwill
We take for granted the freedom we enjoy
Lets us remember our soldiers that are deploy
They fight for justice and the right to be free
And for you to worship as you believe
As you sleep in the safety of you’re bed
Remember the soldiers that never rest
In far away lands they fight everyday
Give thanks to our many veterans today
