1917


All is dark where once was light, As I travel through this hellish night Woven by spirits of foul and evil might Seeking the end of every soothing sight. - Across the ever turmolt land I wander far in search of thee To know that you still stand Among the living and the free. - Down they fall and down they fall. Ever seeking the life of men Bringing fate to one and all These metal creatures made by men. - They slam and roar, slam and roar Bringing fear to one and all Shaking earth and heaven's door Yet fear they more when silence falls - Now they must and now they come Armed with deepest hellish fire Over the top they must come To cross through grave and razor wire. - Passed away and passed away Every man, and beast, and child Ever lost in graves they lay Feasted on by the savage and wild. - Search I must and search I will
