Lyrics

Marching out, just turned 18
Too young to die but willing to fight to be free
Walking through the mist, into the void
Not knowing what to expect
Only doing what he is told

If it is an honor to die for your country
Then go ahead and lead the way

Join the Army of the Dead
Pain and suffering ahead
Can someone tell me why we never learn?
Empires rise, empires fall
And we pay the price by watching our loved ones fall
The Army of the Dead

Life´s just begun, still - one foot in the grave
Stuck in the trenches and dreaming of home again
All wars be damned, this plague of mankind
Watch them spread like a global disease

Soldier, carry on and keep your dream alive
As you walk on the road to hell

It´s the Army of the Dead
Paint the earth bloody red
Is this real or is it just an evil dream?
See the bodies of the damned
Laid out side by side
Our sons and daughters, laid to rest
The Army of the Dead

Empty-eyed, all exhausted, running out of fuel
But heroes never cry
Hear the enemy moving closer
Yeah it won´t be long
And missiles in the sky

So this is the end, you will die in mud and fire
And you gave your life - for this?
No more suffering, no more killing
Just take that final breath

Join the Army of the Dead
Pain and suffering ahead
Can someone tell me why we never learn?
Empires rise, empires fall
And we pay the price by watching our loved ones burn

It´s the Army of the Dead
Paint the earth bloody red
Is it real or is it just an evil dream?
See the bodies of the damned
Laid out side by side
Our sons and daughters, laid to rest
The Army of the Dead
