Текст пісні
In a cold November morning fog
Is when I heard the warning call
Yeah the sun fell down like a fountain falls
As the darkness took the sky
Through the trees I heard the wind sing out
Something's coming I began to shout
That's when I heard that terrible sound
As the bombs destroyed the ground
In the wake of the smoke and ash
I found my brothers laying in the grass
To erase these lives so fast
What a shame it's this we choose
I feel anger deep inside
It's revenge I cannot hide
It's a natural sense of pride
I'm just trying to stay alive
He was trying to better their lives
Two young babies and a beautiful wife
Left alone for the rest of their lives
Now an angel in the sky
He'll grow old always wondering why
He wasn't there to stop them in that night
Too many good men lost the fight
For nothing but our pride
I feel dark inside and now
I want to run but I'd rather shout
The world around me is far too loud
Every day brings painful news
I've seen evil and I've seen pain
Good men drop and fade away
Never knowing who is here to stay
Because war remains the same
In the middle of the summer heat
Night falls as I try to sleep
Pleasant thoughts of my home back east
Brings tears to my eyes
Just then I heard that siren call
I jumped up and felt my body fall
At least the last thing I felt and saw
Was my family in my mind
He was trying to better their lives
Two young babies and a beautiful wife
Left alone for the rest of their lives
Now an angel in the sky
He'll grow old always wondering why
He wasn't there to stop them in that night
Too many good men lost the fight
For nothing but our pride
