In our garden where a war is waged
And you feel that you just can’t complain
You’d like to die
Can you take out all the bullets inside
When I bleed in the foxhole I hide
Shaking while pain overides my prideThe die is cast…I can’t deny
Don’t take my life … but I‘m ready to die
For this flag I fly
Throw..throw down your guns
When all ammo is gone
It’s just you and I
Do you know where the barbed wires end?
Or when these shrapnel wounds would begin to mend?
When the enemy surrounds your gate…
You suffocate
You jump and crawl from all the grenades and mines
Eat meager honesty like a rich man dines
But when the swords slashes you up from inside
You begin to fade…
Don’t take my life … but I‘m ready to die
For this flag I fly
Throw..throw down your guns
When all ammo is gone
It’s just you and I
Did you burn your hands holding shells
Firing back at the enemy’s fence
When your back feels the bayonet’s end
You begin to sigh…but hope won’t die
Don’t take my life … but I‘m ready to die
For this flag I fly
Throw..throw down your guns
When all ammo is gone
It’s just you and I
