The Battle Of Them Vs. Them Lyrics - Dogwood

I'll sing you a song of a time such as these 

Though many a year has now passed 

The lesson's the same but the sentiment's changed 

The impression it made still does last for all 

Serving his country, enlist, do it now 

His took up his arms he would show 

Such bravery as he took many a life 

Of the people he would never know 

Sing of me 

Of all the men I killed 

I know that this will build me up 

Think of me 

I know that I'll be brave 

They all fell down that day 

Well, after the war, people picked up their life 

The damage was already done 

While fatherless children slept under the door 

And woke innocent to the sun 

Please, why me? 

I know they'd take it back 

Why can't they take it back? 

Comfort me 

A child grows too fast 

And now let him ask 

A small little child sits and waits for his dad 

Hands clutching a brown telegram 

Informs him his father won't be coming home 

He gave up his life for his land 

Oh, sing of me 

And all the men I killed 

I know that this will build me up 

And think of me 

I know that was brave 

We all fell down that day 

We all fell down that day 

We all fell down that day 

We all fell down that day 

We all fell down that day
