3 Decade War

By the 1960s, our war tired world
was once again put into shock
Attacked by the Red Scare
We were put into fear
by this Communist, Soviet block
They had strong hopes to control the world
They secluded themselves and blocked off Berlin
Nobody knew how to react
life was insane
only praying they would see the east side again
But we did not attack them
President Kennedy acted with dignity and pride
He let the Cold War play out
kept the U.S. to himself
He was never persuaded by the Soviet Side
By 1989, the Communist flame had finally burnt out
The Wall was down and Russia was Russia again
Berlin was Berlin again
Three decades that did not help a thing
Is what the Cold War was all about
