A lot of memories fade away But not those awful days When you're a man without grace A soldier without a face
No one really knows the truth About blood on glorious shoes About a million killing hands About lonely dying friends
And every night you hear them cry And in your dreams you see them die Up to this day you see their eyes open wide
Face to face with their death And with only memories left In those moments full of pain Face to face with their death And with only memories left You feel like you're goin' insane Goin' insane
Your memories still exist And the bad dreams still resist No one can imagine this - you know When their thoughts are as white as snow
But in a war all the snow is red Red with blood of all the dead Only one thought lets you live on through those days
Face to face with their death And with only memories left In those moments full of pain Face to face with their death And with only memories left You feel like you're goin' insane Goin' insane
Your memories still exist And the bad dreams still resist
Face to face with their death And with only memories left In those moments full of pain Face to face with their death And with only memories left You feel like you're goin' insane
