Storm The Beaches Lyrics - Sin And Bones - Fozzy

[I - Prologo:] 

It's June 6, 1944 

I turned 19 two days before 

Pride and bravery I can't ignore 

Representing my country in this World War 

[II - Lettera di Eisenhower:] 

The Great Crusade Eisenhower decrees 

To bring an end to the Nazi war machine 

Eliminate the German demon seed 

Insuring that the Lord's free world stays free 

True honor and glory I'll receive 

When I protect the USA 

My Mother will be so proud of me 

I'm the hero of the day

Kill 'em all let God's will decide 

The demise of Hitler's reign 

I'll take my shot and death will arrive 

When I splatter their rotted brains 

The freedom of all good citizens 

Lives forever on through me 

I'll defend every one of them 

From sea to shining sea... 

[III - Able Company:] 

...The sea once shined with the light of the sun 

Now it flows bright red with the blood of the sons 

They were the chosen ones 

Now their tour is done 

First platoon to tread on Omaha's sands 

Stricken down by the shells before they land 

Attack poorly planned 

Completely outmanned 

Photos 

First to go 

Last to know 

First to go 

Last to know 

No shingles no shields 

No shell holes to hide 

No cover no walls 

No chance to survive 

Noble is my mission 

The good Lord at my side 

No cover no walls 

No-one stays alive 

Jump off the AM ramps the surf is waist high 

Blitzed by the mortars that fall from the sky 

Waterlogged packs that make them sink like a rock 

Troops being slaughtered can't fire a shot 

First to go 

Last to know 

First to go 

Last to know 

No shingles no shields 

No shell holes to hide 

No cover no walls 

No chance to survive 

Noble is my mission 

The good Lord at my side 

No cover no walls 

No-one stays alive 

Ripped from crown to pelvis 

Soldiers devour the lead 

Hidden Nazi snipers 

Choreograph the dance of the dead 

In less than half an hour 

The mission has been ceased 

Only six survivors 

Wading in the sea... 

[IV - Baker Company:] 

...The sea it swallows my vomit 

As I puke up over the side 

Spews out like a comet 

Terror replacing my pride 

Crying out for my mommy 

Bravado disappears 

Forgetting all of my orders 

What am I doing here? 

Clouding smoke and dust 

Screams build to a roar 

Portrait of pure hell 

Painted on the shore 

Bobbing bodies drift 

Crimson running tide 

Real apocalypse 

Will I be the next to die? 

Be the next to die 

First to go 

Last to know 

First to go 

Last to know 

No shingles no shields 

No shell holes to hide 

No cover no walls 

No chance to survive 

Noble is my mission 

The good Lord at my side 

No cover no walls 

No-one stays alive 

I scramble off the Higgins boat and trip into the crest 

Each man who tries to follow me brought down by Hitler's best 

It takes me an eternity to reach the beach unhit 

Explosions all around my head I'm sure my skull has split 

I'm sure my skull has split 

I snag a piece of driftwood 

And navigate my path 

Through washed-up bloated bodies 

In a death face mask 

Heart racing like a perishing tank 

I rise up from the wave 

And dash across the battleground 

To reach the barricade 

Weak 

From the seasickness and shell-shock 

Crawl 

To the levee of the seawall 

Climb 

To the concrete pillbox heave a desperate last grenade 

Hide 

Potato masher assaults me 

Pain 

Bullets puncture my body 

Fear 

I'm drenched in my own blood 

Close my eyes and drift away 

Close my eyes and drift away 

Close my eyes and drift away... 

[V - Requiem:] 

The tide rolls in to wash my sins away 

I gasp out my last breath 

My soul escapes through ragged wounds 

The D today means death
