lyrics

FRONTLINE

An accidental man – a badge of glory,
Soldier of fortune – twelfth mile of history,
Recalled to the frontline – place of discovery,
Only time will tell of misplaced chivalry

Bayonettes gleaming – still standing tall,
As you watch all your friends fall,
Kings and lords keep marking time,
Soldier of fortune stands in line,

Reward the command, Fight the battle,
Men to chase – the sabre to rattle
Reward the command, Fight the battle,
Men to chase – the sabre to rattle

Mighty vigilante, doubled in his rage,
Soldiers of fortune caught in his cage,
Cannons light up the valleys in the dead of night,
Conscript stands in awe and shows his might,

History tells all in the tapestries,
The soldier says “le mort chasing me!”
From the battles of Troy to Agincourt,
Solider of fortune – death is the score
