"Breathe" by Telepopmusik. Album: Genetic World (Track 1)
it's telepop. just breathe, just believe.
Veterans are people that have been in the war. They have been almost killed, hurt in the worst way possible, seen people die, seen the most disgusting things happen. They have been so hot or cold you can't even imagine it. They have lost body parts. They have been through the worst things you can imagine, just to save our country, so that you can walk outside and not get shot.
Because they served in the army. They're no more heroes than people serving now, but they have a day to recognize them. I would much prefer to honor the people that served and aren't here to celebrate, but the world doesnt work like that
