A Soldier's Fall

Flick the instinct switch to kill
Feelings numbed each day
Death machine will do it's job
But what price will he pay
Victim of society
Screams commands of rage
Pay the price to deity
The master scolds his slaves

Avenge the death of dignity
Something of the past
Soldiers play the game of chance
But how long will he last
Righteousness no more a path
Murders not undone
Each life strips my sanity
Oh god what have I done

Darkness grows on my soul
Dear lord I feel so cold
War has taken it's toll

Trenches running red with blood
The endless river bleeds
The worms that eat my sanity
Will soon run out of feed
Painful confusion through you
Clock that ticks that tortured tune
Hammer pounding at your brain
Enough to drive someone insane

Darkness grows on my soul
Dear lord I feel so cold
War has taken it's toll

You cannot get blood from a stone
Only losers in this war
No one ends up going home
Better off dead than alone
I'm alone

Bite the snake that feasts on you
Killing all that you live through
Bare the blood of your own past
Your in the right your free at last
Dying for the right to live
Justified somehow
Not what man was meant to do
The soldier soon will fall

Darkness grows on my soul
Dear lord I feel so cold
War has taken it's toll
I'm in hell with no where to go
Go

Thrash N' Burn.... What more has to be said. There was always a party surrounding these riffs and a path of destruction left with the ringing in your ears and a hangover in the morning.
