Silent is the night, cold, dark and grey, mutters and snores full the eerie air. You raise from sleep, woken by cries and screams, you start your daily routine.
Pick up your gun, dive from fire, run over the top, your mind set in stone. A hero of war? No that is not right, those who survive, godbless their souls, living among the dead. One drops, bullet in head, the next, in the chest. A hero of war, thats what they say, not one can imagine, what happened to them.
Life in a trench, life is hard, a hero of war, one drops then the next, god bless their souls, living among the dead.
