| Where do all the dead men go from the battlefields?
|
| Where are their exploded bones, their useless swords and shields?
|
| In the Hall of Ancient gods, are they now at pieace?
|
| Or are they fighting evermore to earn their last release?
|
| Midgard, Heaven, Kingdom Come
|
| Are they all the same?
|
| Fallen heroes, warriors
|
| The valiant, the slain
|
| Did they believe or did they die in vain?
|
| Immortal dead, brothers and sons
|
| When all is said and all is done
|
| Running for your life, dying for the cause
|
| Pawns in the game, voices from the war
|
| The men they march away to fight, their fate is never clean
|
| They never all come home again to tell of what they’ve seen
|
| In the battles bloody fury is the verdict just?
|
| Executioner, judge and jury, forgotten in the dust
|
| Valhalla, Happy hunting ground
|
| Are they all the same?
|
| Fallen heroes, warriors the valiant the slain
|
| Did they believe or did they die ashamed
|
| Immortal dead, brothers and sons
|
| All is said, all is done
|
| Fighting to the death, what did they do it for?
|
| Soldiers of the cross, voices from the war
|
| The battlefields are silent now, the graves all look the same
|
| The crosses without number and so many without names
|
| In the battles misery drowned in blood and fear
|
| A hundred, hundred, thousand for a hundred thousand years
|
| Are they in a better place?
|
| Or do they lie unclaimed?
|
| The heroes, the deserters, the cowardly, the shamed
|
| Did they know or did they die insane?
|
| Mourn for the lost, Stolen from their lives
|
| Gone before their time, no chance to say goodbye
|
| Fighting to the death, how could they be so sure?
|
| Voices from the grave, voices from the war
|
| Voices from the war
|
| Voices from the war |
