Song information
Artist: Dropkick Murphys Album: Do Or Die
Lyrics
- music: barton, lyrics: casey, mccolgan -
Here in the trenches the fist of the beast For fear of an atmosphere poisened deceased With a gas mask to keep me from breathing my death It's american soil I hope for at best
For the duty I serve can't begin to compare To my ancestors battles and wars through the years Though the loneliness strikes like an enemy shell I pray for my home but still sit here in hell
Chorus: Sail away to a place that's unknown Taken away from my friends and my home To a place they call sacred; a place I call hell I long for that corner I once knew so well
Go to the grind it's all that I have Work on and on with nothing to show But a graying face in this dying place Thats a lock in my solitude
I think of a place on a faraway coast Where friends are so dear and there's reason to toast A cloudy image of a middle east land Comes down and wrecks my hopeful thoughts
Chorus: sail away to a place that's unknown Taken away from my friends and my home To a place they call sacred; a place I call hell I long for that corner I once knew so well
Here in the trenches the fist of the beast For fear of an atmosphere poisened deceased With a gas mask to keep me from breathing my death It's american soil I hope for at best
But the duty I serve can't begin to compare To my ancestors' battles and wars through the years Though the loneliness strikes like an enemy shell I pray for my home but still sit here in hell
Chorus: sail away to a place that's unknown Taken away from my friends and my home To a place they call sacred; a place I call hell I long for that corner I once knew so well
