Moonlight bleeding through the wire
Morning coming cold dew sinking, killing fire
Sleeplessness turning in the night
Mother's voice still holds me tight
Gunshots hum a lullaby
Dreams of home come rushing by
Mother praying through her tears
White hair shining through the years
Hands are trembling, hearts confined
The clock keeps breaking what’s inside
Twelve hours waiting face to face
This grave will be our final place
Torn between the fear and fucking rage
We’re just pawns upon this stage
No salvation, no retreat
Only death where silence meets
Tears drip down, hand holding the trigger
Wipe away the dust and sand
Staring at the other side
Someone’s son I can’t decide
Gunfire fades; the ridge stands still
Flags fly bright against the hill
I’ve seen this scene before
Blood and loss in constant war
Fear, anger, sorrow, pain
Hatred, fury, screams remain
Broken hearts and shattered breath
All I feel is fucking death
We don’t know your names
We don’t know which side you stood on
But we know this without you
There would be no us
The lives we live
The nights we sleep in peace
Were written by hands
That trembled on that hill
May this pain never be repeated
With respect and honor
We remember your sacrifice
Hands are trembling, hearts confined
The clock keeps breaking what’s inside
Twelve hours waiting face to face
This grave will be our final place
Torn between the fear and fucking rage
We’re just pawns upon this stage
No salvation, no retreat
Only death where silence meets
