Sent to kill, to watch no man's land 

Snipers are moving unseen 

Fight for land, to lose it again 

Shrapnel is filling the air 



Hell on earth, the trenches mean death, better keep your head down low 

Charge their lines, the ultimate test it's a synchronized sacrifice 



Get the wounded after dark 

Left alone in no man's land 

Maddening chaos at the front 



Dream of heaven 

Angels are calling your name 



Shells and guns, a rifle and scope 

Bullets are wearing your name 

Losing track of time and of space 

Midnight at sanity's edge 



Losing friends to artillery shells, at the break of dawn 

Break their will, as yours has been broken, they're here alone, dream of home 



Charge at dawn to gain a yard 

Scout at night to guard their lines 

Leave your life in fortunes hand 



When the bullet hits it's mark 

Know your time in hell has been served 

You won't return to home
