Soldier's Battle

Hollowed wounds sculpted in stone Feel the ache of battle as I moan Between these cities lies an untold story Of life and death and higher glory The footprints of the soldiers have long been gone But you can still hear their distant song I reach for my sword as I struggle to survive And I know I won't be getting out of this alive They all charge foward with their muskets in hand And I look to see where the others land I wait once more to hear the command But then I look down to see my bloody hand I'm knocked down to my feet and hear myself sigh And deep down I know it will be my last goodbye The bullet flies through me with good intent And Im hoping it will be heaven sent I watch as the the world fades around me Tasting my blood like the tides pulling the sea Soon the day fades to darkness And I am all alone to wonder the fields of hell Distant to the other men that fell Battle still happens here each and every day Even the dead will find a way
