There's still a few hours before the sun is up
Though I wish it'll stay down for a bit longer
There are rumours of another push
Into this land either side has yet to conquer
Sending us out again and again like cattle to the slaughter
All this death and what for
This soil tainted with sorrow and despair
Littered by the corpses of those who tried before
I've seen more death than I ever wanted
More sorrow then my heart could bare
Many men asking for protection from their gods
But even the gods ignore their prayers
I'm done with this blood soaked soil
And hiding like a mole beneath the ground
I'm done with the constant screaming
And with the artillery thundering all around
I can't take it no more
When will it end
When will there be peace
Over this godforsaken strip of land
