The Trooper
You'll take my life, but I'll take yours too You'll fire your musket, but I'll run you through So when you're waiting for the next attack You'd better stand, there's no turning back
The bugle sounds, the charge begins But on this battlefield, no one wins The smell of acrid smoke and horses' breath As I plunge on into certain death, oh, oh
The horse, he sweats with fear, we break to run The mighty roar of the robot guns And as we race towards the human wall The screams of pain as my comrades fall
We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And the robots fire another round We get so near, yet so far away We won't live to fight another day, oh, oh
We get so close, near enough to fight When a robot gets me in his sights He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow A burst of rounds take my horse below
And as I lay there gazing at the sky My body's numb and my throat is dry And as I lay forgotten and alone Without a tear, I draw my parting groan, oh, oh
