lyrics

Four years now
Stuck in hell
Bombs and gas and shot and shell
Death and pain all around me

Didn’t you say
Trust
Obey
Live to fight another day
Didn’t you sell quite the story?

“For King and Country
We will never let you down
For King and Country
You will fight to protect the crown!”

Four years now
Stood on the line
We fought the fight
We did our time
For King and Country
You laughed and watched us drown


Poor Scouser Tommy
Lying in the mud
His life slips away
Drowns in his own blood

Barbed-wired tourniquet
Tears in his flesh
He stares at the sky
Draws in his last breath

Whilst others grow old and their memories fade
Forever twenty-one in this soil where he’s laid
A polished stone marks where he lays
One among millions
Here to stay

Now I’m stuck on the wire
I’m out of time
But the sky’s on fire
And it looks so divine

We become what we hate
Too far gone
Far too late
We repeat the same state
We will kill
What we create

Now I’m stuck on the wire
I’m out of time
But the sky’s on fire
And it looks so divine
