I Am A Combat Unit

I am a combat unit, it seems.
I have my orders, move ahead.
My father's house still haunts my dreams,
And fear won't let me rest in bed.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

My body's frozen in this coat,
A stale crust in my pocket lies.
I curse with every word I quote,
And scrape the soot from gun's disguise.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

I'm glad to hear a bullet's sound.
It whistles, so it's not for me.
My friends have gone to sleep profound.
May earth rest lightly, wild and free.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

Your graves, half-burned, the forest grieves,
An ancient maple sheds its tears.
May the local postman interleave
The letters to your wives for years.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

Let them not give for all your pain
The planned-out medals, cold and stark,
So that your kin won't sell again
Those honors in the trading mart.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

I wash my hands in blood so deep,
Of my own friends, my foes as well.
And to the Lord, a prayer I keep,
For absolution from this hell.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

Forgive, I beg, forgive, Most High,
And calm the fury in our soul.

The sun's bright flashes fade and die,
And we are granted a new role.

The sun's bright flashes fade and die,
And we are granted a new role.

And we are granted a new role.

A new role!

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.

Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
Combat unit.
