Battlefield

Dying men and burning wrecks

on a battlefield of fear

Comrades bleed from a thousand wounds

but I can’t hear them scream

 

In a symphony of death and pain

the mortars set the pace

Satan plays his violin

I fight I kill I laugh in his face

 

A veil of tears covers my eyes

blinds me from the truth

That veil of tears from fallen men

keeps me raged and confused

 

Smoke and fire, hell unleashed

Welcome home

Aim and fire, unleash hell

Welcome home

Welcome to my home

 

Machine gun fire from far away

cutting through the ranks

The Reaper applauds the show tonight

I fight, I kill and I laugh in his face

 

Bayonets clash, close combat at hand

knee deep in blood in a trench

Satan’s work has just begun

when I fight I laugh I’m killing the dead

 

Something’s gone wrong inside my head

maybe I’ve gone insane

Cause killing put’s a smile on my face

I laugh I kill I’m lost in a maze

 

Aim and fire, hell unleashed

Welcome home

Aim and fire, unleash hell

Welcome home

Welcome to my home

 

Victorious we roam the land

believing we’ve set it free

Perhaps we were wrong or the price was to high

no hero’s welcome for me

I see hatred brewing, burning in the dark

left for dead in the street, shot through the heart

The very last bullet fired, it sealed my fate

Now I’m leaving home
