| Where are we to go from here in time,
|
| Do you see the future, do you know,
|
| What can you expect from years to come,
|
| And what can you do now to make it so,
|
| All of history is there for you,
|
| All the deeds done in the world are mad
|
| If you don’t know what has gone before,
|
| You’ll just make the same mistake again &again &again.
|
| Soldier, soldier, see where we were,
|
| You have to know the story,
|
| Older, colder, life isn’t fair,
|
| Got to grab the sword of glory,
|
| If you can’t see what bloody fools we were,
|
| Then you were also born a bloody fool,
|
| Listen to the hundred million dead,
|
| They didn’t know it, but they died for you,
|
| All you know is that you’re young &tough,
|
| Don’t you think those millions thought the same,
|
| If you don’t know where it all went wrong,
|
| You’ll just make the same mistake again &again &again.
|
| Soldier, soldier, see where we were,
|
| You have to know the story,
|
| Older or colder, life ain’t fair,
|
| Got to grab the sword of glory,
|
| Read the books, learn to save your life,
|
| How can you find the knowledge if you don’t,
|
| All the brave men died before their time,
|
| You’ll either be a hero, or you won’t,
|
| Don’t you realize the ony way,
|
| Is see why all those brave men died in vain,
|
| If all that slaughter doesn’t make you sad,
|
| You’ll just make the same mistake again &again &again.
|
| Soldier, soldier, see where we were,
|
| You have to know the story,
