The Alarm - Third Light lyrics
Your rating:
I feel so sick insde, two months and you've been alive No one here knows your surname. no one knows from where you came The red cross takes you to your grave for which the government kindly pays WHITE CROSS upon the hillside there lies that unknown soldier No one can remember your name Here I stand by your graveside the steel helmet lies upon your cross THey said you died for king and country but that's no comfort to the live you've lost FIRST LIGHT, the sniper saw you. SECOND LIGHT, took careful ain THIRD LIGHT, he pulled the trigger on the gun dead dead dead WHITE CROSS upon the hillside there lies that unknown soldier No one can remember your name SO here begins the human harvest Another war to end all wars To give a life for rhyme nor reason There are no words to justify the cause So if our future lies in the scarlet fields Who would be a patriot at the price of humanity? WHO WOULD BE A PATRIOT AT THE PRICE OF HUMANITY
