In a dark field
On a darker night
The soldier alone
The tracers his light
His prayers in the dark
Heard only by him
Answered by God
Thus the new day begins
Try as he might
The soldier can't move
Yet soon he must fight
His aim must be true
He unclenches his hand
Lifts up his piece
With a shot to the head
His assailant is deceased
The second man comes
And he also falls
Alone once again
The soldier he calls
To his general, his leader
His people, his race
Remember his name
Remember his fate
Remember the men
With whom he has died
And remember the tactics
And plans that they tried
And think to yourself
As you lay down in bed
Of the soldier who fought
And for you wound up dead
