Apocalyptic battlefields
become sacrificial alters
Demonic leaders play with fire
initiate the slaughter
Casualties of war pray
but war has no forgiveness
The memories will never fade
a never ending sickness
The aftermath of battle
just becomes another war
Your picking up the pieces
of the life you had before
Inside your head you still see
the coffins on the tarmac
Some two feet long, carry the young
you begin to crack
Once a soldier, so proud ready to fight
Shadows of the nightfall, you don’t turn out the lights
Helpless visions of dark descent
torment you each night
A troubled soul lost in a world
of unbearable sights
Terrorised minds cant sleep
when emotions turn black
Fear infests every cell
with a violent flashback
Your madness turns to the point of suicide
Your faith in queen and country has now faded and died
Your thrown aside, duties are fulfilled
Your friends crucified on the killing fields
See their faces white, uniform turn red
Cant help feeling now that your better off dead
Apocalyptic battlefields become sacrificial altars
Demonic leaders play with fire, initiate the slaughter
You’ve seen the horror, as cannon fodder
Lambs to the slaughter
