Lyrics
Last night home in a lonely town
A futile end awaits them
The wives don't know if they'll make it this time
The soldiers know that they're dead men
Evening falls and the ships leave shore
The onlookers don't feel the cold rain
People watch as the light grows dim
They won't be seeing their loved ones again

An eighteen year old with his youth intact
So proud to be fighting for country
But he didn't know that he'd die alone
So indistinct and so ugly
The time will pass and the wounds will heal
But bodies still catch inside the net
Widows forgive and others don't care
But the spirits of dead men will never forget
