Diary of an Unknown Soldier/The Lost Battalion - Sabaton

I remember the Argonne, 1918

The sounds of that battle still haunt me to this day

Machine gun fire from enemy lines

The sickening sound of a bayonet tearing through human flesh

The soldier next to me firing his sidearm in desperation

All these sounds still echo in my mind

And as conducted by Death himself it all comes together as music

A rhythm of death

A symphony of war

Far from their land as they made their stand

They stood strong and the legend still lives on

1918 the Great War rages on

A battalion is lost in the Argonne

Under fire there's nothing they can do

There's no way they can get a message through

Suffer heavy losses as the battle carries on

Liberty Division standing strong

Far from their land as they made their stand

A disregarded demand

It's surrender or die and the stakes are high

They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye

Weapon in hand as they made their stand

Still disregarding demand

They would never comply, they would rather die

Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved

Friendly fire, munitions running low

The supplies, they were dropped upon their foe

1918 the war still rages on

The battalion still trapped in the Argonne

Chose not to surrender, they chose victory or defeat

Fallen brothers resting by their feet

Far from their land as they made their stand

A disregarded demand

It's surrender or die and the stakes are high

They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye

Weapon in hand as they made their stand

Still disregarding demand

They would never comply, they would rather die

Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved

Far from their land as they made their stand

A disregarded demand

It's surrender or die and the stakes are high

Live or die, who can tell there's no goodbye

With a weapon in hand as they made their stand

Still disregarding demand

They would never comply, they would rather die

They stood strong and the legend still lives on

Suffered heavy losses through the Great War they stood strong

But the memory of the fallen still lives on

Far from their land as they made their stand

A disregarded demand

It's surrender or die and the stakes are high

They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye

Weapon in hand as they made their stand

Still disregarding demand

They would never comply, they would rather die

Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved
