Was it really so bad in 2016
With a choice to remain, you chose to leave
I sit and I ponder and look to the sea
And think what was once and was once meant to be
Was it really so hard in a time that was free
Where bygones were bygones, sharing fruit from the tree
But to lie and to cheat for democracy
Not like fighting for freedom in 1916
Centurion leaders and what have we gained
Or what will be lost when you have not remained
We’ll toast to the memory of all that were slain
While the knife it cuts deeper and parts us again
