Welcome to a world of pain |
|
This is the day of your conversion, mortification |
|
Dragged away from home on blood red nights |
|
Slave to a brutal system, forevermore, forevermore |
|
You are an orphan now, adopted by the beast of war |
|
The end of all your childhood dreams has come |
|
No more will you meet a smilling face |
|
Now peace has left your sleep forever |
|
There are no arms to hold you |
|
Yet there are no hands to wipe your tears |
|
Constrained and forced to kill |
|
These cruelties will haunt you, a life in combat |
|
Your fear will make you bleed, your inner combat |
|
A life without a future, you will forget your wishes |
|
And nothing to embrace, but the rifle in your hands, forevermore |
|
You are an orphan now, adopted by the beast of war |
|
The end of all your childhood dreams has come: |
|
A life of combat, forevermore |
|
No more will you meet a smilling face |
|
Now peace has left your sleep forever |
|
There are no arms to hold you |
|
Yet there are no hands to wipe your tears away |
|
There are no arms to hold you |
|
Peace has left your sleep |
