Under the gun

Infidel can you hear
Would be strange delight
I need you to give your sympathy tonight
When you hear what I say
Deeds I´ve done
Realize I´ve never lost and never won
I´ve got a feeling that it´s never right
There was a reason but it´s out of sight
It´s going down somewhere tonight
Under the gun
Put death in my hand
Learn to fight
Who could care if it´s wrong or if it´s right
We got no choice
Under command
We´re ordered to die or take this land
Stupid bastards and religious freaks
So safe in their castle keeps
They turn away as a mother weeps
Under the gun
When brave men fall
Under crimson skies
There´s a sadness reflected in a soldier´s
eyes
Tears will dry
For those I kill
Remember no more their names but
someone will
The only way to be victorious
Screw the fools who think it´s glorious
Who gives a toss about the likes of us
Under the gun
Would be strange delight
I need you to give your sympathy tonight
When you hear what I say
Deeds I´ve done
Realize I´ve never lost and never won
I´ve got a feeling that it´s never right
There was a reason but it´s out of sight
It´s going down somewhere tonight
Under the gun
Put death in my hand
Learn to fight
Who could care if it´s wrong or if it´s right
We got no choice
Under command
We´re ordered to die or take this land
Stupid bastards and religious freaks
So safe in their castle keeps
They turn away as a mother weeps
Under the gun
When brave men fall
Under crimson skies
There´s a sadness reflected in a soldier´s
eyes
Tears will dry
For those I kill
Remember no more their names but
someone will
The only way to be victorious
Screw the fools who think it´s glorious
Who gives a toss about the likes of us
Under the gun
