Favorite Quote:
Forget the times he walked by, Forget the times he made you cry, <br /> Forget the times he spoke your name, Remember now your not the same. <br /> Forget the times he held your hand, Forget the sweet things if you can,<br /> Forget the times &amp; Don&#039;t pretend, Remember now he&#039;s just your friend.

And we raise that flag
We bow our heads
For those in the east
Who give their lives
And they sacrifice
Everything for us to be free
You say they shouldn't be there
That they shouldn’t risk their lives
That we should mind our business
But I say otherwise
