lyrics

look at you soldier boy now with that big gun in your little hand
as you patrol this foreign landhear the mine that clicks beneath your feet
now do you see the light fading as your world is crumbling, out on patrol
and all you can do is sit and stare
what revelation have you now what culmination to your speck of life
your moment in time
as you sit here all alone will your buddies come and save your life
but as the enemy appears see your life flash before your eyes
