Rain drums the lifeless ground
Drops as cold as ice
The dawn's breaking
The trench are shaking

The 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
They all think that I'm brave
The strongest link of our chain
But really I've gotta say that ain't how it's like

Closing in, not slowing down
Iron, fire, blood
Our line's breaking and death is taking
Our men from all around
Into the pools of mud
Forward, forward, there is no turning back!

May today become the day
As I plunge into the grey
Lead is flying
All the signs are there
They all think that I'm brave
The strongest link of our chain
But really I've gotta say that ain't how it's like

The fallback 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
They all think that I'm brave
The strongest link of our chain
But really I just want a bullet between my eyes
Aim high
