Smoke on the horizon filters a blood red sun Distant storms of strife echo as thunderous guns The kingdom of war still claiming more souls While remnants of the battle lie unbucted in the cold Artillery has had its say with black power words Infantry and cavalry their truth from above Warship guns send their message far offshore Conflagaration Defiant and proud Conflagaration Deaths burning shroud Feverish prayers whispered with a mouth Face down in a foxhole with dried blood Trying to satisfy a code of honour And where upon my oath I must forever fight! On wartorn blood drenched hallowed ground I stand alone gazing after the horrifying sounds Acts of bravery claimed by every war The ultimate sacrifice doesnt offer us a choice A growing conflict deep within my pounding heart A wrenching pain numbed by the droning smart Who is it created this sleepless hell? Why are they not here to fight as well? The gods of war loose their thunderous creed Is this sacrifice my final deed? Who has won if nothing has been gained Conflagaration and death again stake their claim
