10th Man Down

Lyrics

Today I killed, he was just a boy
 Eight before him, I knew them all
 In the fields a dying oath
 I'd kill them all to save my own
 ♪
 Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
 One by one, we will fall, down down
 Pull the plug, end the pain, run an' fight for life
 Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
 ♪
 Deliver me from this war
 It's not for me it's because of you
 Devil seems; my eternity
 Obey to kill to save yourself
 Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
 One by one, we will fall, down down
 Pull the plug, end the pain, run an' fight for life
 Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
 ♪
 "I envy the 9 lives that gave me hell
 My path made up by their torn bodies
 Man to man, soldier to soldier, dust to dust
 Call me a coward but I can't take it anymore"
 They wait for me far back home
 The live with eyes turned away
 They were the first ones to see
 They are the last ones to bleed
 ♪
 "The ultimate high as all beautiful dies
 A ruler's tool, a priest's excuse, a tyrant's delight
 ♪
 I alone, the great white hunter
 I'll march till the dawn brings me rest
 ♪
 10th patriot at the gallows' pole!"
 ♪
 Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
 One by one, we will fall, down down
 Pull the plug, end the pain, run an' fight for life
 Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
 Cut me free, bleed with me, oh no
 One by one, we will fall, down down
 Pull the plug, end the pain, run an' fight for life
 Hold on tight, this ain't my fight
