The naked earth is warm with spring
But nothing's changed beneath the sky
And he is dead who will not fight
Yet as we fight, we are sure to die
Beyond the ridge lies another world
Or is it just more death and gore
Sliding deeper into the mud
Do you remember, what we're fighting for?
Staring into the distance
Don’t know what I’m looking for
Questioning our existence
Is there a life beyond this war?
A war of attrition
Stalemate disposition
A war of attrition
Sisyphean condition
The anguish of the ravaged land
The scars will never heal
Behold the tombs that we create
Mounds of flesh and steel
No cross or wreath
will mark their graves
No thought or prayer
Can heal our pain
A war of attrition
Stalemate disposition
A war of attrition
Sisyphean condition
A war of attrition
Stalemate disposition
A war of attrition
Sisyphean condition
The anguish of the ravaged land
The scars we leave will never heal
Behold the tombs that we create
Made of mounds of flesh and steel
Our prayers they fall on heedless ears
God closed his watchful eye
And he is dead who will not fight
Yet as we fight, we are sure to die
