These empty fields
Now green with time
Cover the scars
Of life left behind
No white crosses
Or flowers to tell
The names of the missing
Or of those who fell
These Empty Fields
Hold your last breath
A shattered mind
A broken soul
If you survive
A life-long toll
"No man left behind"
That’s the line you’re told
Fighting for freedom
That’s how you are sold
Trade in your name for a number
Trade your mind for sand
Fight ‘til the death
Do you kill on command?
These Empty Fields
Hold your last breath
Blessed are the fallen
Whose bodies lie broken
Buried and crossed off
In these empty fields
Blessed are our fallen sons
These empty fields
These empty fields!
These empty fields are calling…me!
