life of a soldier dont comment if its about grammer i dont care
On your feet
Grab your gear
Grab your weapon
We are under attack
Exit the door
Gun fire lights up the sky
Bombs explode with a evil laugh
Wounded cry in the dead of night
Medavacs scream across the midnight sky
Stench of death fills the air
Burnt flesh fills your nose
Blood soaked ground over flows
Souls lost, dead and gone
After the fight drained and weary
Return to bed on edge and leary
Ears still ringing from the nights affair
Lay down to rest your eyes
Forced to wake up as dreams turn to nightmares
Nightmares into a peace
Crosses scattered across the land where men once stood
For the ones that have fallen
Tears fall to the ground
Anger rises
Hatred bellows from the depths of hell
Lay down to rest your eyes
On your feet
Grab your gear
Grab your weapon
We are under attack
