Charnel Ditch

from Subjugation by Nuklear Frost

/

lyrics

Cinders white like driven snow
This charnel ditch where comrades fall
To appease the clockwork machine
Blood-rusted under crimson sheen
Hunkered down in make-shift holes
They shiver like winter-born foals
Few remain eager to fight
Anticipating the inevitable strike

Frostbitten fingers clench weapons rusted
by exposure to adverse, inclement elements
A gust of an ill-wind brings the stench
of decaying amputations into the camp
Artillery that deafens with a shroud of silence
Causing other trialed senses to tense
Tactics and logistics of deadlocked advance
Told the life of a horse supersedes that of man

Decorations in light of what they lost
Silver Star, Croix de Guerre, Iron Cross
A puppeteers' war fought using pawns
A continent burning while industry crowed
Treachery hidden by black ink's gloss
An epidemic forcing hands of the clock
Remission of the combat abattoir
Til the dawn of the next great war
