Those Once Loyal

At first light Deep within entrenchments The orders are revealed A final push impending Encoded messages have been received At first light Fires of the enemy dead will burn bright If in mourning they choose we die Zero hour at first light The waiting time is over No final night before Once more into action Embrace the storm. Oncoming for all Standing At the edge Allegiances Now pledged... forever Orders - unquestionable All rank and file expendable The frozen dawn emerges Let the battle now commence None surrendered through last night Zero hour approaching At first light Fires of the enemy dead will burn bright If in mourning they choose we die Zero hour approaching

Devastated, through broken promises and lies The scars lie deep now, burning from inside Cut through broken promises and lies Intense resentment now will thrive Instinctively - as you feel the anger rise As the pressure builds hatred fills the mind Overpowering - gripped within the jaws of defeat Under attack - no organised retreat Trapped within the jaws of defeat Won but lost - the misery complete When least expected - with the element of surprise Silent and swiftly - another taken life Violated - breached are all defensive lines The enemy has victory in sight Within the moment When all seems lost In retaliation Eradicate the past In defeat triumphant In the face of massed adversity In a world of compromise ....Some don’t

Those that fell today shall be In solemn sculpture cast Always held in reverence In memory of the past Named in tribute forevermore The colours carved on the granite wall Folded flags awarded In the line of duty fallen Draped upon the coffin lid The banner never taken The regimental crest That still flies high No colours lost, the epitaph Attempt to take them and you shall die Named in tribute forevermore The colours carved on the granite wall Carved upon the granite wall Mankind on the brink of extinction Few now left alive - the human race denied Mourning The tragic loss Life cut short This broken column Immortal Names shall be Carved in stone Upon the granite wall

Valiant in the midst of conflict In memoriam honours distinctive At half-mast the colours are raised The tragic waste of life once gave Immortalised plaque of remembrance With reverence their names are listed Glorified and in honour held In commemorance of those that fell To those once loyal now wreathed in crimson Solemn reminder of silent sacrifice To the once loyal forever wrapped in glory In white crossed acres - lines of sorrow laid To those once loyal now wreathed in crimson Solemn reminder of silent sacrifice To the once loyal forever wrapped in glory In white crossed acres - lines of sorrow laid Brave are the deeds Of fallen victorious Never forgotten Lonely are the glorious

Scattered on foreign fields Lie the burnt-out hulls of our dead armour Old landscape wreckage And this earth now scorched Selfless acts of bravery In the face of overwhelming force Hold position - position held Retained new glory sought Shattered defences now alone Cover the tactical withdrawal Outgunned, outnumbered Though never outclassed Spent the ammunition of faith Weaponry exhausted Now reduced in numbers Numbers reduced To the last Face to face with cold dead eyes The final register of death Crushed are the adversaries The kill rate ratio rising One hundred to one Honours withheld in travesty Presented falsely to another With courage unspoken All heroes die

There is no time for despair Entering the void Of your worst nightmares As the spirit leaves The body will decay Watching as your life blood Slowly slips away In a second all turns black Mind is numbed With pain and torment Alone the only witness As you bleed Departure of your soul Will finally concede Abandoned In the last attack Death no glory Last stand of humanity Descending No way back Death at the point of victory Last stand of humanity Attaining Pride at last With new-found hope There still could be victory

Out beyond the recon-point Battle weary, nerves now frayed One step closer to oblivion Abandoned life the price to pay The final sacrifice - ushered to the grave There is no time to run or hide No chance to pray Mankind's legacy - past knowledge saved Glory not given - respect is made Stranded in no-man's-land Water always tastes the same Trapped within this shell hole There is no shelter from the steel rain Dead men again Still unchallenged Forging on No respite Until this war is won Relentless barrage never ceasing Artillery has found its range Caught within the crossfire There is no shelter from the steel rain Dead men again White-hot shrapnel fills the sky Advancing ever onwards Conditioned reflex feel no pain At the point beyond insane There is no shelter from the steel rain There is no shelter from the steel rain Dead men again

Into the eighth offensive Frontline reformed Artillery that never ceased In overtures of war ....When cannons fade Now the guns are silenced End of hell storm The final argument of kings All earth transformed ....When cannons fade As the silence grows Steadily replacing The resonance of thunder Deep in the soul Conscience still remains Horror - amongst the flames Ashes keep on falling I close my eyes And even now The distant memory remains Of the last laments To be played (When cannons fade)
