PCS Remembers

Legs

We stand to honour you.
Not because we need to,
but because you are our legs.

The sirens were loud,
But you could stand there proud,
Because you are our legs.

Your collective steps have carved a way,
The way that will always remain,
And carried the torch on cracked feet and broken backs.

So, we stand to honour you.
Not just because you did for us,
but because you are our legs.

The 11th November

Every year on the 11th of November
We take the time to remember
Those we have lost, those we miss
The ones we wish we had one more kiss
The ones who were brave enough to go and fight
The ones who fought through the endless night
The loved ones we remember
Every 11th of November
So as the world holds its breath
A two-minute silence to thank the death
That people gave for us to enjoy
A future full of life and joy
So think about that sea of red
Tonight when you lay your head
Would you give up what they gave?
Would you rest beneath a grave?
For the future to have a life of peace
Your daughter, your son, your nephew, your niece
Enjoy the life they gave for us
And enjoy yours full of love and trust

We will remember them

Violence, bullets, all around me
The silent, yet potent smell of defeat
Bodies I see laying knee deep,
Now the fallen line
Coffins and graves
The real story never told, always forgotten
Remember these words
War was waged and damage done
Families left beyond repair, crying and weeping at people's graves
There they lay in the fields
Those coloured flowers
Revealing the cold, hard, truth

We stand

We stand for those who have fallen.
For those who gave their lives for ours.
From a nobody to a somebody, to a true hero.
They had a heart of gold. 
Red poppies bloom for the soldiers who left us too soon. 
We remember each soldier whether they were young, old, brave or bold.
Their bravery for our freedom, our memory for their legacy.
They put on their uniform through every storm. 
They stood their ground through every fight.
Their glory didn't just make a story, they gave us memories to hold with pride and glory.
Their legacy shines always throughout history. 
A Timeless tale of courage of love and dreams worth chasing.
They stood tall and strong and courageous and brave forever remembered.
The heroes were so brave they saved our days.

A Day To Remember

November 11th, a day to remember, 
The battles, the guns, the embers,
We gather to recognise those who paid the ultimate price, 
The reason we gather today because of their sacrifice

We remember the heartfelt goodbyes, 
The anxious prayers to the skies, 
We remember the day the battlefields became empty, 
When the guns were silenced, 

 And how crimson shrouds stretched for miles on end,
We remember how our country was defended,
We remember it all but most of all we remember them. 

They continue to live on in our hearts, 
Fathers, Sons, brothers,and sweethearts,
Each has their own story that ended far too soon, 
Their memories light up like the stars and moon, 

Poppies on our lapels and our hands intertwined,
It’s thanks to them that our country continues to thrive,
It’s thanks to them that we are all still alive, 

November 11th a day we remember, 
The guns, the battles the embers, 
But above all we remember and we will never forget,
Them.
