Brothers of War

(*T. Olsson)

No more tears*

I have cried for yesterday

Silence haunts me now

There is no more to say

Every day

There’s a war inside my head

I have had enough

I wish that I was dead

Hear machine guns fire in my dreams

Tortured souls and hallowed screams

Like a soldier unknown

There’s a bond that can’t be broken

Brothers of war

They stained foreign sand

They were second to none

And so many words unspoken

Brothers of war

They stained foreign land

Raise our flag

Like a candle in the wind

Praise my uniform

For every time I sinned

Helmet on

Loaded gun beside my bed

Don’t think less of me

I wish that I was dead

Hear machine guns fire in my dreams

Nothing’s never what it seems

Like a soldier unknown

There’s a bond that can’t be broken

Brothers of war

They stained foreign sand

They were second to none

And so many words unspoken

Brothers of war

They stained foreign land
