10th Man Down Lyrics

Intro:

“Get up Soldier!”
Part I:

Today I killed, he was just a boy
Eight before him, I knew them all
In the fields a dying oath
I'd kill them all to save my own
Refrain:

Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
One by one, we will fall, down down
Pull the plug, end the pain, run'n fight for life
Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
Part II:

Deliver me from this war
It's not for me it's because of you
Devil's instant my eternity
Obey to kill to save yourself
Refrain:

Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
One by one, we will fall, down down
Pull the plug, end the pain, run'n fight for life
Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
Middle Part:

(Tapio Wilska):

“I envy the 9 lives that gave me hell
My path made up by their torn bodies
Man to man, soldier to soldier, dust to dust
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
Call me a coward but I can't take it anymore!”
They wait for me, for back home.
They live with eyes turned away.
They were the first ones to see.
They are the last ones to bleed.
(Tapio Wilska):

“Oh, the ultimate high as all beautiful dies
A ruler's tool, priest's excuse, tyrant's delight...
I alone the great white hunter
I'll march till the dawn brings me rest
10th patriot at the gallow's pole!”
Refrain:

Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
One by one, we will fall, down down
Pull the plug, end the pain, run'n fight for life
Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
One by one, we will fall, down down
Pull the plug, end the pain, run'n fight for life
Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
