17.Spirit Of The Soldier
Soldiers all go marching into battle
Moving slowly on across the ground
Tracks of tanks flatten the sand beneath them
Soon to be replaced by human flesh
Loved ones left behind are not forgotten
Memories kept fresh by photographs
The will of the politicians is forced
And now soldiers kill to make them proud
They can feel the spirit that they will kill for
Now the soldiers have become their god
Arrogance now fuels the need for conquest
Nuclear chemistry is the god
Capitol approaches in the distance
Enemy waiting in their walls
As the first attack is launched upon them
You could see the passion in their eyes
Eyes that would soon be ruptured and removed
By the weapons that will take their life
They can feel the spirit that they will kill for
Now the soldiers have become their god
Pieces of human blasting through the air
The conclusion will not end in life
As they look into the sky
They die with pride in their eye
