Where dead mam lies
I'm paralyzed
My brother's eyes are gone

And he shall
Be buried here
Nameless marks his grace

Mother home
Get a telegram
And shed a tear of grief

Mud and blood
In foreign land
Trying to understand

Where is the greatness I've been told?
This the lies that we been sold
Is this a worthy sacrifice?

Great War
And I cannot take more
Great tour
I keep on marching on
I play the great score
There will be no encore
Great War
The war to end all wars

I'm standing here
I'm full od fear
With bodies at my feet

Over there
In the other trench
Bullets wear my name

Lead ahead
As the captain said
And show them no remorse

Who am I
To understand
What have I become?

I do my duties, pay the price
I'll do the worthy sacrifice
I know my deeds are not in vain

Great War
And I cannot take more
Great tour
I keep on marching on
I play the great score
There will be no encore
Great War
The war to end all wars

And feet by feet we pay the price of a mile here
Though men are falling we see the heroes rise
We face the heat as we are fighting until the dawn
So follow me and we will write our own story

Great War
And I cannot take more
Great tour
I keep on marching on
I play the great score
There will be no encore
Great War
The war to end all wars
