VICTORY DEMANDS SACRIFICE

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

White marble lines

In the yard where the grass grew tall

We traded our youth

For the pride before the fall

Names carved in the gray stone

Deep debt we can never repay

Brass shell casings

Telling truth about the yesterday

Pre-Chorus

Load the mag

Lock it tight

Final prayer

Into night

Check the gear

Move as one

Mission starts

With the sun

Chorus

Victory demands a heavy sacrifice

Rolling the iron dice

Blood for the freedom

Blood for the peace

Pain is the only release

Pay the cost

Carry the cross

Win at the price of the lost

Verse 2

Rifle grip cold

Screaming lungs in the desert heat

Bruised hands holding

When the world admits defeat

I hear my brothers breathing

Heavy rhythm in the dirt

One mind working

To survive the final hurt

Pre-Chorus

Load the mag

Lock it tight

Final prayer

Into night

Check the gear

Move as one

Mission starts

With the sun

Chorus

Victory demands a heavy sacrifice

Rolling the iron dice

Blood for the freedom

Blood for the peace

Pain is the only release

Pay the cost

Carry the cross

Win at the price of the lost

Bridge

Never quit

Never crawl

Against the back against the wall

For the flag

For the home

Walking through the fire alone

Take the hill

Break the line

Victory is mine

Chorus

Victory demands a heavy sacrifice

Rolling the iron dice

Blood for the freedom

Blood for the peace

Pain is the only release

Pay the cost

Carry the cross

Win at the price of the lost
