|
The sun is dawning on another sea of blood and mud |
|
March against machine guns like lambs being driven to the slaughter |
|
Tornadoes of shrapnel |
|
The wounded sinking in three feet of mud |
|
Dying grotesquely |
|
Wading through the swamp among the carnage |
|
No - Our last assault for victory |
|
No - Shattered by machine gun fire |
|
No - Bombs rain down in cataracts |
|
No - Carnival of death |
|
Shellshocked, paralyzed, staring into the gloom |
|
Penalties for desertion |
|
Death the reward for cowardice |
|
Salvos, cannonades, unleashing hysteria of rage |
|
The senselessness of it all |
|
Grew like a cancer in the minds of the troops |
|
No - Our last assault for victory |
|
No - Shattered by machine gun fire |
|
No - Bombs rain down in cataracts |
|
No - Carnival of death |
|
No survivors |
|
No survivors |
|
For weeks I have waited in this mud |
|
I'm shaking, I'm wet |
|
The stench of my dead friends |
|
Relieved when we finally march in |
|
This waiting is killing me |
|
Traumatized eyes, as we go in |
|
Bodies everywhere, the bullets scream |
|
We can't survive but we march in |
|
Nothing to win but I go in |
|
Don't care if this killing is a sin |
|
I just want to end this hell I'm in |
|
I hit the bottom, we did not win |
|
No - Our last assault for victory |
|
No - Shattered by machine gun fire |
|
No - Bombs rain down in cataracts |
|
No - Carnival of death |
|
No survivors |
|
No survivors |
