War Poem lyrics with English Translations
War Poem Silence falls in no man's land
To echo on uncertain steps
Sharp of eye and quick of hand
Advancing forward to regrets
Underfoot the bombs and mortars
Sleep awaiting coded warnings
From the top the barking orders
Light the sky on these dark mornings
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Sympathy for all who's hurting Getting lost between the lines It's the stuff that keeps returning Laughing loud in victor's lies Up above on wind's declaring Soon the cold will whistle through Push aside the warm sierras Fill the sails that carry you
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Many miles are put between the What once was and what will be Sleepwalk nightmare to sweet dream Each step consigned to history Every whisper sings resistance All emotions hide inside Refugee looks to the distance Out there somewhere lies his pride
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Sympathy for all who's hurting Getting lost between the lines It's the stuff that keeps returning Laughing loud in victor's lies Up above on wind's declaring Soon the cold will whistle through Push aside the warm sierras Fill the sails that carry you
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
Many miles are put between the What once was and what will be Sleepwalk nightmare to sweet dream Each step consigned to history Every whisper sings resistance All emotions hide inside Refugee looks to the distance Out there somewhere lies his pride
Seek asylum from the terror Reaching out for what it's worth Shelter from the raging anger Raining down on bitter earth
