Nightwish "10th Man Down" lyrics

10th Man Down

"Get up Soldier!"

Today I killed, he was just a boyEight before him, I knew them allIn the fields a dying oath:I’d kill them all to save my own

Cut me free, bleed with me, oh noOne by one, we will fall, down downPull the plug, end the pain, run’n fight for lifeHold on tight, this ain’t my fight

Deliver me from this warIt’s not for me it’s because of youDevil’s instant my eternityObey to kill to save yourself

Cut me free, bleed with me, oh noOne by one, we will fall, down downPull the plug, end the pain, run’n fight for lifeHold on tight, this ain’t my fight

"I envy the 9 lives that gave me hellMy path made up by their torn bodiesMan to man, soldier to soldier, dust to dustCall me a coward but I can’t take it anymore!"

They wait for me back homeThey live with eyes turned awayThey were the first ones to seeThey are the last ones to bleed

"Oh, the ultimate high as all beautiful diesA ruler’s tool, priest’s excuse, tyrant’s delight…I alone, the great white hunterI’ll march till the dawn brings me rest10th patriot at the gallow’s pole!"
