Ghost of a Soldier

[00:00.42] When I was 18 years, they gave me a gun
[00:04.12] Went straight to the docks, there was work to be done
[00:07.85] So sailed to a country I didn't even know
[00:11.62] We landed in June, where summer wind blows
[00:15.16] It was a dusty Sunday morning, when I woke up
[00:19.00] Y'had smoke everywhere, I took a bullet from the cup
[00:22.79] Th'enemy's battalion was out for attack
[00:26.25] A gun in my hand, but a bullet in my back
[00:29.88] Well, I died in a war, which was not mine
[00:33.59] Later with my drum, mate, I stood in line
[00:39.55] Now, I am wandering around this wasted land
[00:46.64] The ghost of a soldier, my soul forever damned
[00:53.84] Whoa-oh-oh
[00:56.04]
[01:11.14] There was nothing left but anger in my soul
[01:14.44] Every night I pull my body out of that goddamn hole
[01:18.38] I never know why, why we were there
[01:21.84] I gave my youth, but no one seemed to fucking care
[01:25.41] Now I see the ravens flapping both their wings
[01:29.17] Picking pieces out of fallen queens and kings
[01:32.82] My blood-soaked hopes, they're all in vain
[01:36.72] Not in heaven, not in hell, that's my bane
[01:40.14] Well, I died in a war, which was not mine
[01:44.46] Later with my drum, mate, I stood in line
[01:49.47] Now, I am wandering around this wasted land
[01:56.99] The ghost of a soldier, my soul forever damned
[02:04.18] Whoa, whoa
[02:06.56]
[02:51.42] Now, I am wandering around this wasted land
[02:58.62] The ghost of a soldier, my soul forever damned
[03:06.28] Now, I am wandering around this wasted land
[03:13.58] The ghost of a soldier, my soul forever damned
[03:20.00] Whoa-oh-oh
[03:22.10]
