The Battle of Verdun letra

The rain falls
And never seems to stop
The soldiers die
And bodies rot
This battle
Will never end
Already
A hundred thousand dead
Like the Huns
A thousand years before
But with higher stakes
And a war torn force

They tell us to just hold out
But for just how much longer?
We're just but men
Sent into a meat-grinder
In a war of attrition
No one can win
Just keep marching
Officers tell the men

1916
Total War
1916


I don't know what day it is
I don't know what year
I've been here for months
Paralyzed with fear
Demons are haunting me
How many have I killed?
The rain turns to blood
And bodies litter the field

Ils ne passeront pas
Is this the truth?
We're supposed to bleed France dry
Have we been taken for fools?

The artillery shells
Fall like rain from the sky
40 million shells
Coming to take my life
God take me
From this hell
I want to die
Please take me

Nothing is sacred
Nothing is worth all of this
Just dig me a hole
and bury me in this pit

The end is coming
It's coming soon
It's coming to take me
and destroy what I knew
The bayonet
Pierces my chest
I gasp for air
and I receive death
I was born and raised
to die in a mud filled ditch
Like so many others
dying with a final twitch
Everything turns to black
I'll never again see the sun
In that which is known
as the Hell of Verdun
