Strife it was, oh
Strife caused it all
That could turn friend and neighbor
Into a true foe
When Yugoslavia started to fall
The Bosnia-Herzegoviniansleft through great labor
Bitter resentment from having to go
The Serbians then put forth their gall
And said not one would turn traitor
Their leaders just said no
The Serbs stood tall
And attacked the gator
That they had once called bro
This shows that no one can trust all
And also that rejection can make men say “Later!”
But the wounded man can turn on you and others just so
And those who had stood by each other arm in arm all tall
Can reveal their blades and carve into hearts a crater.
