Blood on the Sand Lyrics


Head towards the shore, get ready to go

The lead rain falls and casualties grow

The beach is awash blood and limbs all around

We've suffered heavy losses but we're gaining ground

Puking on the floor as the apprehension builds

No preparation for those about to kill

Spray from the sea assaulting my senses

As a shell hits my whole body tenses

Push against hate once and for all

We'll stand upon this hill, standing tall

We must keep on fighting, victory at hand

Standing on this beach with blood on the sand

Taking cover behind our fallen allies

Looking all around as our comrades die

Drive forward let the courage surge

Destroy their bulwark this disease must be purged



The war machine churns the bodies for all

It has no allegiance most of us will fall

Mortar fire blasts friend and foes apart

Bodies piling up forming human ramparts

Push against hate once and for all

We'll stand upon this hill, standing tall

We must keep on fighting, victory at hand

Standing on this beach with blood on the sand

Bodies, litter, the beaches are covered

The fields are no different, flowers are smothered

The air of death touches all in its proximity

But we've staved it off our war in divinity

Stand atop the crest as dregs are picked off

Reflecting on the violence, flag held aloft

Conquered is this tyranny and forward we run

Until this corruption is killed this isn't won

Push against hate once and for all

We'll stand upon this hill, standing tall

We must keep on fighting, victory at hand

Standing on this beach with blood on the sand
