lyrics

Put down your name, no claims to fame.
Name of the cause, exist no more.
Walk into hell, step on empty shells.
Tred the longest mile, forget all smiles.

Who was the one that said there'd be glory?
Not one of those whoi went before me.
They'll never be back to give me the warning,
when I wake up to the sound of war thunder.

Sleep under the stars, bare the scars.
You won't want to show, only they truly know.
The pain and the price, for us to live our lives.
Stay rolling dice, soldiers will to survive.
Never knowing if it's time.

The politician who put me on this field, trapped here not no choice of yield.
I'd like to see if they'd crawl through the mud and rise to the sound of war thunder.

Time to load the gun, will I know if we won?
The ground is shaking now, instinct is telling me how.

Will I wake up tomorrow? File in at dawn?
Rise up to salute the onwards march to war thunder.

Will I wake up tomorrow? File in at dawn?
Rise up to salute the onwards march to war thunder.
