But only a few
Truly know the code
Which mere words can not convey
So the code remains unspoken
And will forever be that way

It’s a code that can’t be broken
Can’t be torn or go up smokin’
Those who know it would rather die
Than refute it, contradict it or deny
The code and it’s true worth
Born despite Satan’s hellfire’s hearth

For Satan does not know the code
And it is doubtful that he ever will
Since the code contains no greed
And is more a way we feel

A feeling in our hearts
With those comrades
A feeling that only we know
An Unspoken Code from the Ages
A feeling down deep in our souls

Though this code remains in silence
Only few can recognize
what is written upon the heart
can be seen only in our eyes

No one needs to tell
of the bond so deeply felt
together we bear the scars
and play the hand we’re dealt

But our souls cannot survive
without the Turnkey from on high
unlocking the vault of grace
so that evil we may face.

For we were soldiers then
as we are for Him again
Bearing witness to mans’ pain
so it won’t occur again.
