May today become the day

Rain drums the lifeless ground
Drops as cold as ice
The dawn is breaking, the trench a-shaking...
Their fire hits us all around
And the siren cries
"Forward! Forward!" -We go into attack!

May today become the day...
As I plunge into the grey
Lead is flying, all the signs are there
The all think that I am brave
Strongest link of our chain
But really I've gotta say that ain't how it's like

Closing in, now slowing down
Iron, fire, blood
Our line's breaking and death a-taking...
Our men all around
Into the pools of mud
Forward, forward...There is no turning back!

May today become the day...

The fall back -calling as our soldiers keep falling
No, forward, forward! I am not turning back!

May today become the day...
As I plunge into the grey
Lead is flying, all the signs are there
The all think that I am brave
Strongest link of our chain
But really I...
Just want a bullet between my eyes
Aim high
