No time for crying

Marching fighting living dying keep moving forward there is no time for crying 

Attack retreat move forward move back killing the enemy in another attack

Body parts strewn all around on the ground while blood from the dead has turned the dirt red

Death from the land the sea and the air who are we killing dose anyone care
 
The enemy have no faces and we don't know their name we are just pawns in wars deadly game

Bullets with your name on shells hitting the ground screaming of the dying is the normal sound

Marching fighting living dying keep moving forward as there is no time for crying
