Prisoner Of War

from Creatures I: From Below by Desolate State

/

lyrics

Alone in the darkness I am stumbling blindly
Held by a captor I cannot see
Blood on my wrists from the chains that are binding
Cutting me deep as I try to break free

Shot from the air I was captured in battle
Nine of my comrades lay dead in a field
Tortured and beaten to give up our secrets
Try as you may not one is revealed

I fight for my freedom, my queen and my country
The war rages on with no end in sight
Trapped with my fear in this cursed reality
Prisoner of war I won’t give up this fight

Tell me my fate, am I destined to die here
I dream of my wife and the children I love
I think of the men and the women Ive served with
And pray that the allies rain hell from above

Shots begin firing from outside the doorway
Panic and chaos is all that I hear
Is this the end am I meeting my maker
Bravely I kneel face to face with my fear

The door it breaks open and I scream someone help me
A voice in the air cries are you alone
A radio crackles, a hand on my shoulder
On your feet soldier we're taking you home
