Текст пісні
They don't hand out courage, you earn it in blood
He came back different, silence in his stare
Boots by the door, ghosts in the air
Scars they don't see, but he wears them proud
Another Marine, still standing loud
Seen brothers fall, heard mothers cry
Put flags on caskets, still wonder why
But he never flinched, never walked away
That's devil dog blood born that way
We don't fall, we don't flee
We stand our ground where the brave should be
Through the fire, through the dirt
Every loss, every hurt
We carry it all with a steel light grace
You'll never find quit in a devil dog's face
Through the smoke and the mud
That's devil dog blood
He ain't looking for a thank you or a cheer
Just a toast for the ones who ain't here
Tattooed name, stitched in his soul
Still fighting wars he don't control
We don't fall, we don't flee
We stand our ground where the brave should be
Through the fire, through the dirt
Every loss, every hurt
We carry it all with a steel light grace
You'll never find quit in a devil dog's face
Through the smoke and the mud
That's devil dog blood
That's devil dog blood
They said it's just a job, but they don't know
What it means to bleed for the flag to blow
His family is fire, he's simplified
It's standing tall when it's time to die
We don't fall, we don't flee
We stand our ground where the brave should be
Through the fire, through the dirt
Every loss, every hurt
We carry it all with a steel light grace
You'll never find quit in a devil dog's face
Through the smoke and the mud
That's devil dog blood
For the fallen
For the living
For the cold
