After the invaders were defeated
At their schools they somehow forget to mention the shame;
They avoid to face it
For the victims it was not a game!

The grandest nation in the East had now fallen
Into the hands which held the red flag;
The culture was dead, freedom was forbidden
Families torn asunder, books burnt, the rich had to wear a tag

That said 'I am guilty and I am to be punished'
Brainwashed youngsters betrayed their parents for the chairman's sake;
This was where the hard-built democracy, in the decades to come, eventually finished
At school they studied what was fake

A tiny land which is now deeply divided
The past is still there but the new government wants to deny
Condemning just about everything the former rulers did
Citing 'They arrived here only to occupy'

They are re-educating the young
Re-writing the past and making them ignorant
Of what is right and wrong;
Using all their might to ensure the past goes silent

I looked it up and there's so much I didn't know. It was around this time of year too
