Down in trenches Blood on my hands Doing all that I can to survive Bombs in the day Chlorine in the night Will I make it out here alive? Death and destruction, fear and demise Take their toll on the human mind Can't close my eyes Can't stay awake Shellshocked! Re-living the nightmare Numb and exhausted, must stand my ground I'm the last one defending the line Turn off the light Or they might find us Shellshocked! No one can patch up this wound Out of the trenches Alone in the field Barb wire cuts into flesh Enemy fire When, do I wonder Will I get out of this mess? I can't control my mind, I'm running loose My rifle in my hand Knee-deep in mud, this trench will be my grave This is my final stand The blood I've spilled, the men that I have killed Their ghosts are hunting me I can't see straight, my eyes have seen too much Who will remember me?
