[00:05.01]Throw your soldiers into positions once there is no escape,
[00:08.48]and they will prefer death to flight.
[00:11.01]
[00:51.33]Hear the sound of the machine gun
[00:54.12]Hear it echo in the night
[00:57.28]Mortars firing, rains the scene
[00:59.88]Scars the fields that once were green
[01:02.63]It's a stalemate at the front line
[01:05.40]Where the soldiers rest in mud
[01:08.72]Roads and houses, all is gone
[01:11.28]There's no glory to be won
[01:13.58]
[01:13.97]Know that many men will suffer
[01:16.61]know that many men will die
[01:20.09]Half a million lives at stake
[01:22.72]At the fields of Paschendale
[01:25.41]And as night falls the general calls and the battle carries on and on
[01:31.09]What is the purpose of it all
[01:37.23]What's the price of a mile
[01:39.35]
[01:39.94]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army on the march
[01:46.08]Long way from home, paying the price in young mens lives
[01:51.45]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army in despair
[01:57.51]Knee-deep in mud, stuck in the trench with no way out
[02:02.65]
[02:08.75]Thousands of machine guns
[02:11.24]Get on firing through the night
[02:14.50]Mortars placed and wreck the scene
[02:17.11]Guns the fields that once were green
[02:19.69]Still a dead-lock at the front line
[02:22.52]Where the soldiers die in mud
[02:25.73]Rosen, houses since long gone
[02:28.57]Still no glory has been won
[02:30.67]
[02:31.04]Know that many men has suffered
[02:33.76]Know that many men has died
[02:37.06]Six miles of ground has been won
[02:39.67]Half a million men are gone
[02:42.55]And as the men crawl the general call and the killing carry on
[02:47.95]I long what was the purpose of it all
[02:54.37]What's the price of a mile
[02:56.13]
[02:57.16]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army on the march
[03:03.21]Long way from home, paying the price in young mens lives
[03:08.52]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army in despair
[03:14.88]Knee-deep in mud, stuck in the trench with no way out
[03:19.77]
[03:31.85]Young men are dying
[03:34.72]They pay the price
[03:37.63]Oh how they suffer
[03:40.38]So tell me what's the price of a mile
[03:45.59]...
[04:10.08]That's the price of a mile
[04:11.81]
[04:12.91]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army on the march
[04:18.84]Long way from home, paying the price in young mens lives
[04:24.07]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army in despair
[04:30.27]Knee-deep in mud, stuck in the trench with no way out
[04:35.27]
[04:35.92]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army on the march
[04:41.73]Long way from home, paying the price in young mens lives
[04:46.88]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army in despair
[04:53.13]Knee-deep in mud, stuck in the trench with no way out
[04:58.04]
[04:58.40]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army on the march
[05:04.55]Long way from home, paying the price in young mens lives
[05:09.70]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army in despair
[05:16.01]Knee-deep in mud, stuck in the trench with no way out
[05:20.99]
[05:21.27]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army on the march
[05:27.37]Long way from home, paying the price in young mens lives
[05:32.59]Thousands of feet march to the beat, it's an army in despair
[05:38.81]Knee-deep in mud, stuck in the trench with no way out
[05:44.32]
