A lot of memories fade away

But not those awful days

When you're a man without grace

A soldier without a face

No one really knows the truth

About blood on glorious shoes

About a million killing hands

About lonely dying friends

And every night you hear them cry

And in your dreams you see them die

Up to this day you see their eyes open wide



[Chorus:]

Face to face with their death

And with only memories left

In those moments full of pain

You feel like you're goin' insane



Your memories still exist

The bad dreams still resist

No one can imagine this-you know

When their thoughts are as white as snow

But in a war all the snow is red

Red with blood of all the dead

Only one thought lets you live on

through those days



[Chorus:]

Face to face with their death

And with only memories left

In those moments full of pain

You feel like you're goin insane
