the dawn is rising
down at the frontline
few minutes before
we go back to march
millions like me
defending the pride
our flag to victory
we shall drive
I don't know what
is the price to pay
innocents dying
in front of me
another battle we've won
sergeant says
"that's all that counts"
my name is written on a stone
that's me in the picture for sure
among a thousand other names
born and died is what it says
they taught me how to kill
no more emotions now I feel
blood and questions in to my eyes
come back to haunt me every night
I have no family, don't know my name
a code branded behind my head
our war is over I feel so glad
"back to the command"
the sergeant says
my name is written on a stone
that's me in the picture for sure
among a thousand other names
born and died is what it says
standing in the line
a dead man that is killing
they filled my head
with memories I never lived
my head is against that stone
a gun on my head I'm on the floor
"we apologize soldier"
the sergeant says
"but we don't need you anymore"
my name is written on a stone
that's me in the picture for sure
among a thousand other names
born and died is what it says
