  1. When Armies Collide

    In the distance a sentry shouts the warning alarm
    a massive build-up occurs beyond
    From afar in the fog shrouded forest preserve
    all patrols must hurriedly abscond
    Reinforcements scurry from the rear armoured outer guard
    to prepare for a massive strike
    tanks move forward followed by the infantry
    assault is scheduled for tonite!!
    Precisely at midnight cannon fire erupts on the horizon
    tearing soldiers into shreds
    Spotlights shining illuminating the feverish action
    machine gun bullets tracer-red
    Silhouetted shadows etchings of the enemy
    scramble forward for a fight
    Bayonets drawn mortar fire pinning us down
    somber destruction awesome site!
    Trench warfare
    Kill, hand-to-hand combat begins close quarter incursion
    use the butt end of your rifle to drive home the point
    that defeat can never be considered an option!
    Steadily open fire point blank range won’t miss
    take out their lower extremities
    Severe a knee or a leg or slice the artery
    with a quick twist of the blade!!!
    Trench warfare
    Count the number of men in combat as far as the eye can see
    machine gun nests are bristling
    how many dead can there be??
    Flamethrowers spewing sparks burn bright these corpses lie
    our annihilation is fairly evident
    today I’ll surely die!!!
    Trench warfare
    Time to spill blood taste the enemies defeat
    Watch the blood flow, Kill
    number of men in combat as far as the eye can see
    machine gun nests are bristling how many dead can there be???
    Flamethrowers spewing sparks burn bright these corpses lie
    annihilation is fairly evident
    today I’ll surely die!!!
    Trench warfare
    Time to spill blood taste the enemies defeat!!!!
