Black Widow The Battle Lyrics

The Onslaught

Bombs are falling all around and the battle rages
Smoke in palls of red and brown and the war, it wages
Death and pain, a common scene in its various stages
Craters where a child has been but still the battle ages

Shells are bursting in the air, are you dead or dreaming?
Lucky people stand and stare at the mother screaming
Is there anyone prepared to try and stop the scheming?
You can then begin to care whethеr you're dead or dreaming
If A Man Should Diе

Hey, soldier, think for a while
'Bout the next man whose life you steal
Imagine how his wife is gonna feel
Knowing he's not coming home again

But why should you care with your shiny gun? You've got your orders, your work must be done
Drive a tank and build a bridge, no matter what you do
Shooting peasants with machine guns, it's not up to you

Hey, soldier, hey, hey, soldier
Hey, hey, soldier, think for a while

Survival

And now the battle's over, time to count the dead
Time for the living to kneel and pray
For the souls of children, please let them be saved
And help us when it comes again tomorrow
Cos we're so lonely, so lonely now

Oh we're so lonely, so lonely now
Yeah, oh we're so lonely, so lonely now, oh
Oh we're so lonely, so lonely now, we're so lonely
Oh we're so lonely, so lonely now, we're so lonely
