In the gloom the gathering storm abatesIn the ships gimlet eyes awaitThe call to arms to hammer at the gatesTo blow them wide throw evil to its fateAll summers long the drills to build the machineTo turn man from flesh and blood to steelFrom paper soldiers to bodies on the beachFrom summer sends to Armageddon's reachOverlord your master not your godThe enemy coast dawning grey with scudThese wretched souls puking shaking fearTo take a bullet for those who send them hereThe world's all right the cliffs erupt in flameNo escape remorseless shrapnel rainsDrowning men no chance for a warrior's fateA choking death enter hell's gatesSliding we go only fear on our sideTo the edge of the wireAnd we rush with the tideOh the water is redWith the blood of the deadBut I'm still alive pray to God I surviveHow long on this longest day'Till we finally make it throughHow long on this longest day'Till we finally make it throughThe rising dead faces bloated tornThey are relieved the living wait their turnYour number's up the bullet's got your nameYou still go on to hell and back againValhalla waits Valkyries rise and fallThe warrior tombs lie open for us allA ghostly hand reaches through the wallBlood and sand we will prevailSliding we go only fear on our sideTo the edge of the wireAnd we rush with the tideOh the water is redWith the blood of the deadBut I'm still alive pray to God I surviveHow long on this longest day'Till we finally make it throughHow long on this longest day'Till we finally make it throughHow long on this longest day'Till we finally make it throughHow long on this longest day'Till we finally make it through
