Forgotten Heroes - Cloven Hoof

I’m a soldier

Born and raised to kill

Nerves of steel

Forged by an iron will

No heart to run away

Here where the bullets fly

There’s no one left

To hear my battle cry

Mine is not to reason why?

Forgotten heroes

The battle has been won

No more heroes

But their memory lingers on

Forgotten heroes

Too late to count the cost

No more heroes

The languid and the lost

Cheating death so many times

Haunted spirits of the front line

They seem to have died in vain

Trenches deep in blood

The stench of corpses

Sinking into mud

Did the sacrifice do any good?

Help me sweet Jesus

I feel I can’t go on

Our ranks are falling

Reinforcements are gone

Mortars are pounding

It seems this is the end

A case of death or glory

What honour to defend?

Oh Forgotten Heroes
