Karaoké The Price of a Mile Sabaton

Hear the sound of the machine gun

Hear it echo in the night

Mortars firing rains the scene

Scars the fields that once were green

It's a stalemate at the front line where the soldiers rest in mud

Roads and houses

All is gone

There's no glory to be won

Know that many men will suffer

Know that many men will die

Half a million lives at stake

Ask the fields of Passchendaele

And as night falls the general calls and the battle carries on and on

What is the purpose of it all

What's the price of a mile

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of machine guns kept on firing through the night

Mortars placed and wreck the scene

Guns the fields that once were green

Still a deadlock at the front line where the soldiers die in mud

Roads and houses since long gone

Still no glory has been won

Know that many men has suffered

Know that many men has died

Six miles of ground has been won

Half a million men are gone

And as the men crawled the general called and the killing carried on and on

What was the purpose of it all

What's the price of a mile

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Young men are dying

They pay the price

Oh how they suffer

So tell me what's the price of a mile

There's no price for a mile

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army in despair

Knee-deep in mud

Stuck in the trench with no way out

Thousands of feet march to the beat

It's an army on the march

Long way from home

Paying the price in young men's lives
