Few walk through this valley of death
Most fall before the line
All bodies are treated the same
Lifeless bones lost in time
Tanks lay there like slain beasts
Their metal left to rust
Battle remains are bleached in the sun
Slowly turning to dust
Beneath a sky that never darkens
We fought across the top of hell
Until only two were left to fight
We shook the ground and fell
Upon this withered earth
Blood dries with the dust and blows away
Hot winds cleansing a desert
Sounds of battle fade to silence
Maybe the war goes on below
A life lay injured and dying in the field
An ancient who has survived
A choice to run or save the enemy
Can I leave him to die?
A tale from another time
He tells of a future war
When they drove us into space
And claimed the earth for their own
Ending that war ends this one too
Ancients fight by my side
Somewhere in time they will join me
My only chance to make it home alive
Beneath a sky that never darkens
We fought across the top of hell
Until only two were left to fight
We shook the ground and fell
Upon this withered earth
Upon this withered earth
Upon this withered earth
Upon this withered earth
Upon this withered earth
Upon this withered earth
Upon this withered earth
