Disposable Heroes

Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
Victim of what said should be, a servant 'til I fall

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
21, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, greetings death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward, you servant
You blind man

Barking of machine gun fire does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man more stripes you wear, glory-seeker trends
Bodies fill the fields I see, the slaughter never ends

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
21, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here
Greetings, death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blind man

(Why) am I dying?
(Kill) have no fear
(Lie) live off lying
(Hell) hell is here

(Why) am I dying?
(Kill) have no fear
(Lie) live off lying
(Hell) hell is here
I was born for dying

Life put out before my birth, nothing could I say
Had no chance to see myself, molded day by day
Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
Left to die with only friend, alone I clench my gun

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
21, only son
But he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, greetings death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward, you servant
You blind man
Back to the front

Back to the front
Back to the front
Back to the front
Back to the front
