I looked across the battlefield
Blood seeping from my wounds-
My comrades they did never yield
For courage knows no bounds-
And yet i thought as i stood there
Of all that it had cost-
For what we gained it seemed not fair
For all that we had lost-
They spoke of honour faith and pride
Defending for our home-
Through honour all my friends have died
Their faith left me alone-
We fought for greed we fought for fame
We killed too much to tell-
The devil and god were both the same
We worshipped only hell-
We fought it seemed for a thousand years
A million nights and days-
Sharing one laugh with a hundred tears
Seeing clearly through a haze-
Then came that day i know not when
Beneath a blood red sun
A-top a pile of dying men
They said that we had won-
Another tract of land is all
The territory gained-
Will that ever pay for all
The lives here lost or maimed?
Bodies lying all around
Blood bathing them in red
Their white eyes staring at the sun
These the countless dead?
I looked across the battlefield
Blood seeping from my wounds-
My comrades they did never yield
For courage knows no bounds-
