Sabaton lyrics : "The Price Of A Mile"

Hear the sound of a machinegun
Hear it echo in the night
Mortals firing rains the scene

Scars the fields
That once were green


It's a stalemate at the frontline
Where the soldiers rest in mud
Roads and houses

All is gone
There is no glory to be won


Know that many will suffer
Know that many men will die
Half a million lives at stake

Ask the fields of Passchendaele

And as the night falls the general calls

And the battle carries on
How long?
What is the purpose of it all

What's the price of a mile?

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march
Long way from home
Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army in despair
Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of machineguns

Kept on firing through the night
Mortars placed and wrack the scene
Guns the fields

That once were green

Still a deadlock at the frontline

Where the soldiers die in mud
Roads and houses since long gone
Still no glory has been won

Know that many men has suffered
Know that many men has died


Six months of ground has been won
Half a million men are gone
And as the men crawl the general call

And the killing carry on
How long?
What's the purpose of it all?

What's the price of a mile?

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march
Long way from home
Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army in despair
Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Young men are dying

They pay the price
Oh how they suffer
So tell me what's the price of a mile


That's the price of a mile.


Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army on the march
Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives
Thousands of feet march to the beat
It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud
Stuck in the trench with no way out
