Angels Calling

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 hands
Dream of heaven
Angels are calling your name!

Hell on earth
The trenches mean death
Better keep your head down low
Charge their lines
The ultimate test
It's a synchronized sacrifice

When the bullet hits its mark
Know your time in hell has been served
You won't return to home
Dream of heaven
Angels are calling your name!

Calling you home...
