Filk of Breathe, Sunflower, Rainbow by Chuck Parker

lyrics

Russian troops invade my homeland
The tanks and the missiles are all around
I can hear the roar of engines
Unless they're stuck in the muddy brown

Air sirens make my mind go blank
They're all so loud; they warn of doom
I can't trust my Russian family
They doubt me as they hear the boom

I sit still inside the shelter
I listen to the outside world
They make my town feel like a blank space
Except for the rubble and weapons they've hurled

Little Russia's the name they give us
Do we respect them? Not that much.
I search for my friends to see who made it
And who was taken by death's touch

I reach for family, friends, and loved ones
I long to take them so far away
But then we hear the air raid warning
And so back in the shelter we stay

Through it all I feel the anger
And one clear vision comes to me
The enemy as fertilizer
For miles around and all I see

Fields of Sunflowered Corpses
Fields of Sunflowered Corpses

Their leader is called Vladimir Putin
He orders them to crimes at war
They thought they'd overrun our country
But we made sure they didn't go far

Broken trucks and tanks with tractors
We bring their war machines to our side
If they surrender, we will help them
But otherwise, we make sure they die

Fields of Sunflowered Corpses
Fields of Sunflowered Corpses

Ukraine fights
Ukraine resists
Forever

Ukraine fights
Ukraine resists
Forever

I do not understand
What led them to attack our land
I can face the planes and bombs
'Cause I know our people are making a stand

They can't save us all but they'll save many
We'll give everything to win this fight
We struggle but we strive for vict'ry
With the vision that gets us through darkest night

Fields of Sunflowered Corpses
Fields of Sunflowered Corpses
Fields of Sunflowered Corpses
