I went to war to fight with pride Eager and thought I was willing to die Yet I never thought I would truly face death I thought I was more invincible than the rest I said goodbye to family and friends Hoping just to see them again So off I went to the war I would fight Knowing deep down I was doing what’s right

As soon as I was face to face with the dead, I realized war was not like they said Death and destruction was every which way Then I prayed to God I’d live through this day We used to think this would be possible to win Then machine guns tore through our allies’ skin “Throw that grenade,” somebody instructed He better not miss, or we’ll all be destructed

So many died, and others in pain Why did they die, was it in vain? Was it Christmastime yet, or even December? Why were we there-could anyone remember?

Through all of the struggles and all of the strife French, British, German-all soldiers want life There comes a time when the army must fight Whatever it takes to make this world right.
