Battle cries in the wind Echoes on as the fight begins Thunder rolls over broken plains I feel a distant gun load the shell with my name
I'm just a man of flesh and blood And soon they'll have one less soldier To march in time
Writing home to those it may concern My hands are shaking for the boys I know won't return
I'm just a man of flesh and blood And marching to a different drum
We go marching in time You see we don't remember As we go marching through time Now will we all be forgotten
Morning broke to cold light of day The guns have stopped with no more to say Silent tears and wounds that won't heal I can't forget the pin it was all to real
I'm just a man of flesh and blood And marching to a different drum
We go marching in time You see we don't remember As we go marching through time Now will we all be forgotten
I've seen the smoke from fields of fire And crossed the lines that made me blind Closing your eyes won't stop the pain Won't buy me time to fight again
