Russian Winter
A part of me has died before I was even born<br/> Stung by the frost in a cold winter storm<br/> Destined to doom in a land so cold and grim<br/> Will I die trying to win?<br/> <br/> <br/> Armies before them have come and they've failed<br/> Defeated by the frost, the snow, and the hail<br/> Bogged in the mud, paralyzed by the rain<br/> Frozen bodies covered the plains<br/> <br/> <br/> Of the Russian winter<br/> <br/> <br/> For days and nights the snow kept on falling<br/> It was our endurance against natures calling<br/> Feeling so cold and so tired<br/> Will we ever find the fire?<br/> <br/> <br/> So many dreams lay shattered in the cold<br/> Many good men fell for the pride they behold<br/> Mothers and fathers and children cried<br/> Knowing that their heros all died<br/> In the Russian winter

You gave your life in a foreign land<br/> Did anybody ever give a damn?<br/> You fought for democracy<br/> never knowing why<br/> That it's not your land,<br/> why should you die?<br/> You became a pawn<br/> in the government's game<br/> Giving your life for someone else's gain<br/> Your number was picked,<br/> you answered the call<br/> While some had given little,<br/> you had given all<br/> [chorus]<br/> Rest in peace, unknown soldier<br/> The guns are now silent, the war is over<br/> There's no more bombs, no more flames<br/> To die was your only way out of this game<br/> Rest in peace, unknown soldier<br/> The guns are no silent, the war is over<br/> The jungles are now quiet,<br/> the fallen etched in stone<br/> One day we know<br/> you'll make it back home<br/> Sent off to battle to fight a politician's war<br/> Still never knowing<br/> what you were fighting for<br/> You were just another number,<br/> just another screw<br/> Out to protect the interests<br/> of the chosen few<br/> You fought pitched battles,<br/> facing constant heat<br/> Now the enemy is living on your old street<br/> The one-world government<br/> opened the door and let them in<br/> While leading men to slaughter<br/> that they couldn't win<br/> [repeat chorus]<br/> You still don't know<br/> if your name is unknown<br/> You don't know if you ever made it home<br/> Your family doesn't know where you lie<br/> They haven't a clue<br/> to whether you're dead or alive<br/> Unknown soldier in a cold, shallow grave<br/> We know you were courageous,<br/> we know you were brave<br/> You gave your life in a foreign land<br/> I want you to know that I give a damn
