[00:36.73]You’ll take my life, but I’ll take yours too
[00:39.17]You’ll fire your musket, but I’ll run you through
[00:42.55]So when you’re waiting for the next attack
[00:45.72]You’d better stand, there’s no turning back
[00:48.62]The bugle sounds, the charge begins
[00:51.78]But on this battlefield, no one wins
[00:54.99]The smell of acrid smoke and horses’ breath
[00:57.90]As I plunge on into certain death
[01:01.28]
[01:36.73]The horse, he sweats with fear, we break to run
[01:39.66]The mighty roar of the Russian guns
[01:42.66]And as we race towards the human wall
[01:45.69]The screams of pain as my comrades fall
[01:48.42]We hurdle bodies that lay on the ground
[01:51.58]And the Russians fire another round
[01:54.38]We get so near, yet so far away
[01:57.16]We won’t live to fight another day
[02:00.95]
[03:23.23]We get so close, near enough to fight
[03:26.33]When a Russian gets me in his sights
[03:28.94]He pulls the trigger and I feel the blow
[03:31.77]A burst of rounds take my horse below
[03:34.75]And as I lay there gazing at the sky
[03:37.59]My body’s numb and my throat is dry
[03:40.78]And as I lay forgotten and alone
[03:43.43]Without a tear, I draw my parting groan
