No Time For Complacency

In the twilight we fight

But, really any time is right

Except while the prayers play

Even then there was dismay

We learned to stay aware

Neither night nor day was fair

The 10th got no rest

We proved we were best

From fall to fall on guard

In a land that was far

How the days seemed so long

The nights went on and on

We stood ready to fight

Because any moment was right

Night and day went on and on

On guard til we went home
