Echoes of the Last Soldier

The last thing that I remember They were screaming everywhere All the ground beneath us trembled There were mortars in the air I could feel the hate surround me And so much pain inside me There's so much left to do But precious little time As I walk the trenches 'round On my road to afterlife Now I see them all around me And there is no one here to guide me Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Drowning, bleeding, Inside of me I'm fighting Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Dying, bleeding, I'd be the last man to fall As I crawled between the bodies All of those who lost their lives Everything I ever wanted Was to make it out alive With all the distant voices screaming I could feel my soul was bleeding When I saw the tanks move near From my hideout in the sand I cried and embraced the fear This would be my final stand So I got up and took a deep breath And moved out to face my own death Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Drowning, bleeding, Inside of me I'm fighting Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Dying, bleeding, I'd be the last man to fall Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Drowning, bleeding, Inside of me I'm burning Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Dying, bleeding, And so I'll end up here alone Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Drowning, bleeding, Inside of me I'm fighting Falling, screaming, I wished that I was dreaming Dying, bleeding, I'd be the last man to fall
