May Today Become the Day

Rain drums the lifeless ground

Drops as cold as ice

The dawn is breaking, the trench a-shaking...

Their fire hits us all around

And the siren cries

"Forward! Forward!" -We go into attack!

May today become the day...

As I plunge into the grey

Lead is flying, all the signs are there

The all think that I am brave

Strongest link of our chain

But really I've gotta say that ain't how it's like

Closing in, now slowing down

Iron, fire, blood

Our line's breaking and death a-taking...

Our men all around

Into the pools of mud

Forward, forward...There is no turning back!

May today become the day...

The fall back -calling as our soldiers keep falling

No, forward, forward! I am not turning back!

May today become the day...

As I plunge into the grey

Lead is flying, all the signs are there

The all think that I am brave

Strongest link of our chain

But really I...

Just want a bullet between my eyes

Aim high
