Fields of Verdun

Текст песни Sabaton - Fields of Verdun

As the drum roll started on that dayHeard a hundred miles awayA million shells were firedAnd the green fields turned to greyThe bombardment lasted all day longYet the forts were standing strongHeavily defendedNow the trap has been sprungAnd the battle has begunDescend into darkness303 days below the sunFields of VerdunAnd the battle has begunNowhere to runFather and sonFall one by oneUnder the gunThy will be doneAnd the judgement has begunNowhere to runFather and sonFall one by oneFields of VerdunThough a million shells have scarred the landNo one has the upper handFrom the ground above to trenchesWhere the soldiers make their standAs the trenches slowly turn to mudAnd then quickly start to floodDeath awaits in every cornerAs they die in the mudFill the trenches with bloodDescend into darkness303 days below the sunFields of VerdunAnd the battle has begunNowhere to runFather and sonFall one by oneUnder the gunThy will be doneAnd the judgement has begunNowhere to runFather and sonFall one by oneFields of VerdunFields of execution turned to wasteland from the grassThou shalt go no further. It was said, "They shall not pass!"The spirit of resistance and the madness of the warSo go ahead!Face the lead!Join the dead!Though you die!Where you lie!Never asking why!Descend into darkness303 days below the sunFields of VerdunAnd the battle has begunNowhere to runFather and sonFall one by oneUnder the gunThy will be doneAnd the judgement has begunNowhere to runFather and sonFall one by oneFields of Verdun
