Black Doomed Soldiers (Marching Into Thunder)

Still not breaking

Black Doomed Soldiers

Boots on the ashes

Names burned off our tags

Dog-eared letters in our pockets

Mouths full of sand and flags

We march under broken banners

Scars where our reasons were

Pray into cracked helmets

Hope no one overheard

We are the black doomed soldiers

Too far gone to turn back over

Laugh in the face of closure

(ha) we already died inside

We are the black doomed soldiers

Hands still shake but hearts get colder

Carry the sky on rusted shoulders

One last step

We never say goodbye

Rations of bad decisions

Gunpowder in our weapons

Sleep in the shadow of missions

Wake up and do it again

Tattooed the dates of the fallen

Right over open wounds

Every name a quiet warning

Every breath a borrowed room

We are the black doomed soldiers

Too far gone to turn back over

Laugh in the face of closure

(yeah) we already died inside

We are the black doomed soldiers

Hands still shake but hearts get colder

Carry the sky on rusted shoulders

One last step

We never say goodbye

If this is fate

Then let it come

Line us up

One by one

If there's a home

Beyond this war

Save a seat

We're almost sure

We are the black doomed soldiers

Too far gone to turn back over

Laugh in the face of closure

(hey) we already died inside

We are the black doomed soldiers

Hands still shake but hearts get colder

Carry the sky on rusted shoulders

One last step

We never say goodbye.....

Black doomed Soldiers!!
