Sweet sweet surrender
It's now or never
I'm shipping out in the morning
Replacing the fallen

Sweet sweet surrender
Running down your face
The eastern flank is still holding
The next phase begins
This time in November
Hope I'm back again
Not sure where I'm going
Only know where I've been

Will I ever get out of here
Is there a way back
Can we pick up the pieces and
Make ourselves whole

They took away our gatlings
under pretext of cease fire
Mowed us down turned a blind eye
The snakes and their lies

If you get this I'm dead
Remember that I love you
We're like rabbits in a snow storm
On someone else's farm

Can I ever escape this
Will I ever get out of here
Is there a way I can stop this
And make myself whole

We watched him take his last breath
That day in July
We built up the wall
And the hounds they howled
When I told you I was moving to France
You started to cry
Those days gone by

His last words were barely discernible
Then he died
We're still digging up those weeds in your driveway
In our minds
And never was it known in any age
That rage in inside
Days gone by

Those days were meant to try men's souls
And by the Grace of God we made it through
And I'm here to day goodbye to those days gone by
One last time

Those days were meant to try men's souls
And by the Grace of God we made it through
So I'm here to say goodbye to those days gone by
One last time

Say goodbye to those days gone by
One last time
