The banner

 Oh say can you see 

By the blast of the gun

What so proudly we hail'd 

As the Second Amendment

Whose closed eyes and red blood 

Through the discord and strife

O'er the schoolyards we watched 

As our children were cut down

And the rifle's red glare 

With shots bursting through air

Gave proof through each day

That our flag was failing

O say does that red splattered banner yet wave

O'er the land of the dead and all of their graves
