Forgotten Cause Lyrics

A silence as the soldier falls
While the victims are being put in shrouds
Sirens wail and blue lights flash
Always too late to make the catch

Orphan's in children's home
All the widows - all alone
They can only cry for their relatives
They search for them - but dead or missed
Are wanted - by military

Disdained - by the policy

What's the cause?

Divided as the land maybe
Between the green orange society
Death and carnage every day
Who gives the peace for the violent play?
What's the cause - for the cause?
For the cause - for the forgotten cause

Another cheer as another soldier falls
A catholic father was beaten today
And a protestant girl lost her legs today
Maybe tomorrow it's your turn to die
For the cause - for the cause
For the cause - for the forgotten cause

Lacerated bodies in the King's Road
Destroyed by the power of the hate
Wrecked dreams and hopes in my mind
No future, no way out for Norther Ireland
For the cause - for the cause
For the cause - for the forgotten cause
