Gazing upon the battlefield
Ditches filled with poisonous gas
Men on men as human shields
The red carpet of corpses on the grass
Exploding shells, a burning bus
The sound of tanks on breaking bones
This war brings out the worst in us
Far too many sins for us to atone
We are the soldiers
Of fortitude
No danger is too great for us
Our corpses lie
In solitude
No-one will ever remember us
We are the patriots
Of yesterday
We stand as one, in resolve
Born to die
We are prey
Our sins can never be absolved
Burning bones and rotten flesh
A field of death and decay
Rivers of blood, old and fresh
We won't retreat, we will stay
We are the soldiers
Of fortitude
No danger is too great for us
Our corpses lie
In solitude
No-one will ever remember us
We are the patriots
Of yesterday
We stand as one, in resolve
Born to die
We are prey
Our sins can never be absolved
We are the soldiers
Of fortitude
No danger is too great for us
Our corpses lie
In solitude
No-one will ever remember us
We are the patriots
Of yesterday
We stand as one, in resolve
Born to die
We are prey
Our sins can never be absolved
