Lyrics for Storm the Barracks


Storm the barracks

Storm the barracks, 04:00

Avenge my dead comrades

Bullet casing somersaulting

Onto body bags

A Diamond T is fast approaching

Senses are enhanced

My M240A is awaiting

Die upon impact

Eerily the perimeter is cast

Trip the flares; a dead mans photograph

An A-10 Warthog just above the trees

A chain fed Gatlin turns ominously

I'm convulsing like a brook trout

Ravaged in the sand

Blood becomes a dark red river

This breath is my last

Mamas gonna cry tomorrow

Drape me with a flag

Farewell with no open casket

A medal in her hand

Lyrics Karl Miller Music Karl Miller, Dean Johnson
