In The Midsts Of The Blitzkrieg



its okay to be afraid
world in disarray
in the midst of the blitzkrieg
the chaos shall set you free

as you have tasted flesh
with skin on their bones
and your teeth chatter
with silenced moans

all thats left are dead spirits
that slowly wither away
when guts are splattered
on the battlefield

and you've watched enough of your comrades fall
to find it in yourself to still stand tall
when you realize you were nothing more than a pawn
regret will settle in and your life will be lost
