Ww1 Battle Eyes

Explosions screamed Flame and fire roared Hell before my eyes My mind panicking to absorb Thunder cracked open the cruel sky Rain hits so hard Bullets fly Sensations flood through the mind Mud splattered up, blood in my eyes A mighty pain hits from behind Hit the ground hard Then I die A solemn quiet A familiar moon Stars light up the sky I feel then see movement then stand up right In no man's land I'm with my kind Moving together to a further light No sounds, no fear, no tears to cry Eruption of fate for a thousand more lives We walk on through battle as others die They join our movement, no guns, no knives We look at each other through dead men's eyes A sea of silent movement over fields of cries A sea of slaughtered life sacrificed for the sake of mankind A sea of heroes, a sea of lies, dreams killed forever by bullet, bomb or knife
