Rough Diamond - Soldier On

The break of dawn, and here we are
In trenches dugged out in this field
A fight to come, in this lasting war
Brother killing brother for a cause

As the fog clears away. We fear what lies ahead
To run across this field of death as the battleground
slowly turning red

We hold this line, We´re never stepping down
We´ll fight, ´til the end of time
Stay on this course. We´ll strike down on this evil force
Our Sergeant screaming… Soldier on!

We´re moving out, prepared to die.
All we hear now is the battlecry
As I run, bullets passing by.
Scream is in the air as we die, one by one

We hold this line, We´re never stepping down
We´ll fight, ´til the end of time
Stay on this course. We´ll strike down on this evil force
Our Sergeant screaming… Soldier on!

The battlefield is silent. A single cry
From a pale horse that are wondering where his master lies
I feel so cold and shattered, as I look around
How can anybody justify…to hold this line?

Among these broken bodies, I find my friend
They say he fought for glory, ´til the bitter end
Now I have a question God
Am I the one to shine, as the hero I´ve become
Not worth a nickel nor a dime

We hold this line, We´re never stepping down
We´ll fight, ´til the end of time
Stay on this course. We´ll strike down on this evil force
Our Sergeant screaming… Soldier on!
