Down in the Trenches

In my life I took so many chances

I always said I wasn't scared to die

Now I'm here, down in the trenches

Looking death between the eyes

Good times and not so good

I had it all - And I remember like it was today

Now I will have

To leave it all behind

Oh Lord! Tell me what to do

God have mercy on me

Oh Lord! Show me the way

Give me a chance to carry on

Green grass, springtime, I had a dog once

My mother's eyes, I broke my leg - Saw the world

I made love - Joined the army, I got shot

Hard times and struggle and arguments

Who won? It doesn't really matter now -

Now there's no one who can help me out

Oh Lord! Tell me what to do

God have mercy on me

Oh Lord! Show mw the way

Give me the chance to carry on

Down in the trenches
