Lost in battle overseas Next thing you know you're on your knees If you trust in someone on the screen Then you'll be lost and overseas Always sharing the time on your hands Think of who plans The future for you There's nothing you can do So you're in a uniform It's your calm before the storm Where is it taking us One sign of the cross And you're let loose How long is the stretch of this hanger's noose You kill someone just for gain We end up losing just the same Always sharing your time with no plans Think of who hands The future to you There's nothing you can do So you're in a uniform And it's your calm before the storm Where is it taking us Where is it taking us What does it do for you This one sign of the cross Lost in battle overseas The last thing we need to know is on our knees If you trust in someone on the screen Then you'll be lost and overseas Always sharing time on your hands Think of who plans The future for you There's nothing you can do So you're in a uniform It's your calm before the storm Where is it taking us Where is it taking us What does it do for you This one sign of the cross We are lost in battle overseas
