Hell is waiting

where the ocean meets the sand

Cliffs of burden

where the soldiers rushed into a certain death

At the shoreline

Blood of heroes stains the land

light a candle

A Dm Bb F C

One for each of them who fought and died in vain

[Bridge]

There is no enemy

There is no victory

Only boys who lost their lives in the sand

And they knew they would die
