"This is called Third Light"
|
|
Your head on my shoulder two months you?e been a soldier
|
I feel so sick inside, two months and you? have been alive
|
|
So here I stand by your graveside the steel helmet lies upon your cross
|
They said you died for king and country but that? no comfort to the life you?e lost
|
|
WHITE CROSS upon the hillside there lies that unknown soldier
|
No one can remember your name (no one at all)
|
|
So here I stand by your graveside the steel helmet lies upon your cross
|
They said you died for all the people
|
I said "That is no life you've had"
|
|
FIRST LIGHT the sniper saw you.
|
SECOND LIGHT took careful aim
|
THIRD LIGHT he pulled that trigger
|
On the gun dead dead dead.
|
|
WHITE CROSS upon the hillside
|
There lies that unknown soldier
|
No one can remember your name (no one at all, too late)
|
|
(no one at all)
|
(no one at all)
|
(no one at all)
|
(no one)
|
(no one)
|
(no one)
|
|
WHITE CROSS upon the hillside
|
There lies that unknown soldier
|
No one can remember your name (no one at all)
|
|
Too late
|
|
No one here knows your surname, no one knows from where you came
|
The red cross takes you to your grave for which the government kindly pays
|
|
So here beings the human harvest
|
Another war to end all wars
|
To give a life for rhyme nor reason
|
There are no words to justify the cause
|
So if our future lies in the scarlet fields
|
Who would be a patriot at the price of humanity?
|
WHO WOULD BE A PATRIOT AT TH RPICE OF HUMANITY?
