The sun is dawning on another sea of blood and mud 
March against machine guns like lambs being driven to the slaughter 
Tornadoes of shrapnel 
The wounded sinking in three feet of mud 
Dying grotesquely 
Wading through the swamp among the carnage 

No!!!!! 

-Our last assault for victory 
-Shattered by machine gun fire 
-Bombs rain down in cataracts 
-Carnival of death 

Shellshocked, paralyzed, staring into the gloom 
Penalties for desertion 
Death the reward for cowardice 
Salvos, cannonades, unleashing hysteria of rage 
The senselessness of it all grew like a cancer in the minds of the troops 

No!!!! 

-Our last assault for victory 
-Shattered by machine gun fire 
-Bombs rain down in cataracts 
-Carnival of death

For weeks I have waited in this mud 
I'm shaking, I'm wet 
The stench of my dead friends 
Relieved when we finally march in 
This waiting is killing me 
Traumatized eyes, as we go in 
Bodies everywhere, the bullets scream 
We can't survive but we march in 
Nothing to win but I go in 
Don't care if this killing is a sin 
I just want to end this hell I'm in 
I hit the bottom, we did not win 

No!!!!
