Begin Again

The animosity of the countries has begun
They've already begun to think they've won

They adrenaline has begun to pump
They have begun to watch the bodies slump

The thought "keep going" has begun to sink in
The thought "I'm here to win" just sunk in

Blood draining from the beloved bodies
Who is there to look to when there is nobody

Perpetuous sounds of machine guns
These are the bodies of American sons

The enemies have no mercy
The weight of the broken dog tags is pursy

God has begun to raise these 2500 men 
To a place of pure zen

-Battle of Normandy - June 6th, 1944
(Operation Overlord)
