"Light In The Black" lyrics - SABATON

SABATON
"Light In The Black"

Sent into battle to aid strangers in need
Gain independence, our forces will lead
Final solution when all others have failed
Liberation is coming, our path has been laid

[Pre-Chorus:]
We remember the fields where our tanks held the line
We remember our brothers in arms

[Chorus:]
When the war has been won and the march home begins
What awaits has not yet been revealed
What was won? What was lost?
Will our deeds be remembered?
Are they written on stone or in sand?

Marching ashore our targets await
Facing resistance forces driven by hate
Protecting civilians while fired upon
Rules of engagement, our restrictions are gone

[Pre-Chorus:]
We remember the sea, where our ships roamed the waves
We remember our brothers in arms

[Chorus:]
When the war has been won and the march home begins
What awaits has not yet been revealed
What was won? What was lost?
Will our deeds be remembered?
Are they written on stone or in sand?

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge:]
Leaving home, set to sea
Was this really meant to be?
See the shores of our homes fade away
Facing blood, facing pain
Have our brothers died in Vain?
Many lives has been lost on the way

[Chorus:]
When the war has been won and the march home begins
What awaits has not yet been revealed
What was won? What was lost?
Will our deeds be remembered?
Are they written on stone or in sand?
