The death of a generation Destined to starve in frost and blood The unprecedented slaughter Millions of bodies upon the mud Blindly led into a war Unlike anything mankind has seen before Entire populations laid to waste Death on a scale never seen again Gatling rounds whistle through the air The angels of death cutting down men Screams of agony numb to all hear A thousand more to die by the minute And nobody prays for us The stench of blood and death Carries heavy through the blackened air As corpses start to turn The flesh of the living meets the same fate Barely a day or night No sun is seen beyond the smog A horizon of hell Death is the only salvation The entire lives of mere children Snuffed out, so silently cold As gunshots whistle between them Ending everything met by the barrel An incomprehensible landscape As bodies collapse and flesh rains So valiant, they came in their millions Unmarked now they rot where they fell There is no god here

For the glory of god For the glory of this country You are duty-bound to swear fealty This is a call to arms All will take witness Welcome the privilege to die for England A call to arms In the name of the father Gather all your sons To be fed to the slaughter The greater glory of God The swansong of a generation Carry us to the ground Your empire calls to you Die nameless in the dirt As thousands before you Litter the earth with their fallen How can mankind rebuild After such hideous inhumanity? The young are gutted and butchered Those in power lose nothing High atop my status I have seen no war Yet I continue to call the orders Pawns moving on a chessboard In the face of unimaginable losses For England, my troops will forge on I need no strategy for I meet no consequence Slaughter of innocents is none my concern Die by my command With a rifle in hand This is a call to arms In the name of the father Gather all your sons To be fed to the slaughter Ad majorem dei gloriam

There is no sky here Death’s veil forever surrounds me God has forgotten us We were condemned to begin with I hide below the earth Gun in hand my only companion I feel the rot in my toes Death’s hold patiently awaits me I have seen hell God forsakes us The stench of corpses perpetual I’ve seen what no man should see I watch them rot where they fall Inconceivable brutality Men with lives left behind them Torn to pieces in machine-gunfire Left limbless and screaming Corpses hanging from razor wire I’ll live and die in this cesspit In the company of corpses of friends Many a companion I’ve made here And many of them stare at me dead I’m thankful for these carrion crows To tear out the flesh from their eyes For when the dead gaze upon me I know that I am next to die Where is my god; my salvation? You traitor; forsaker All my life I lived by my god Bullets tear by and I beg for the end The horror I’ve seen I could never forget I realise now there is nothing beyond For how could a god allow such hell on Earth?

Mother, I’ve reached my limit Witnessed the horror of war I stepped forth to fight for my country With honour and pride in my heart I left all belongings behind me Kissed goodbye to all those I loved Never a doubt that I would return to them Alone, I will die in the dark I will join my comrades These men I knew from home Now sunken into this cursed earth Uncoffined, we rot in the dirt I left my home to make you proud I fought to protect those I loved I never knew a woman’s touch Never a child of my own As these bullets will riddle me Always, my thoughts are of home I never dreamt that I would die so far from you Unmarked; I am metal and bone I will die a number Unknown within the slaughter Unknown I stand in a cyclone of hellfire All life ever known is consumed I’ve seen the true nature of humankind Civilisation is but a facade Doused with the blood of my brothers Corpses litter the ground at our feet This trench holds the life and the death of me Rifles clutched as we meet our defeat To battle I will die a number Unknown within the slaughter Over the top I left my home to make you proud I fought to protect those I loved I never knew a woman’s touch Never a child of my own As these bullets will riddle me Always, my last thoughts were of home I never dreamt that I would die so far from you Uncoffined, I die here alone The horror!
