Covering Fire
Praying I'm not the next one at the front of the line
Ghastly voices telling me I have to stay alive
I cannot remember one day I didn't kill
Their weakening faces haunt me forever, still
Piercing through the flesh, tearing the wounds open more
Cutting them down, one by one
Consequences are for those who do not reign supreme
Killing for life I scream, "Covering fire!"
Victims lie dead, shot to the head, spitting blood back in their face
Gathering strength to make memories fade
Of the fabled master race
Peace: A part of the future
War: A thing of the past
Can this be reality...
Or just a favor no man can ask?
Piercing through the flesh, tearing the wounds open more
Cutting them down, one by one
Consequences are for those who do not reign supreme
Killing for life I scream, "Covering fire!"
Glad to be the last one at the back of the line
Ghastly voices telling me I had to stay alive
I cannot remember one day I didn't kill
Their weakening faces haunt me forever, still
Piercing through the flesh, tearing the wounds open more
Cutting them down, one by one
Consequences are for those who do not reign supreme
Killing for life I scream, "Covering fire!"
