Limbo

Boy do you still believe you might Have a chance to sidestep this inevitability? You heard the sound of bugler Blowing his horn but there's no way out And you finally see the doom Getting near and near Here the bodies of the soldiers flutter Like a petal within this hail of metal Half alone half together Boys are screaming like a bird Within this hail of metal And they'll never get back 'Boys who died young are they in heaven With the lord?' you asked And she told you 'no They go to limbo in the sky' Your little eyes wept tears But your mama didn't know Your secret hope to be with her When the doom comes near Here the bodies of the soldiers flutter Like a petal within this hail of metal Half alone half together Boys are screaming Like a bird within this hail of metal And they'll never get back Hearing the sound of bugler Blowing his horn And there's no way out And you know you'll go to limbo in the sky You have no choice You had no chance to grow enough To bear the burden of your own Who's to judge you after all? Here the bodies of the soldiers flutter Like a petal within this hail of metal Half alone half together Boys are screaming Like a bird within this hail of metal And they'll never get back
