Be Under Arms - The Long Walk

Drops of sweat on the dusty asphalt
I hear a breath behind

They're like me
But I was better than them
I should be the first
My footsteps echo
Chose me or I chose
It doesn't matter

I wanted to come here
But when my name came up, I thought
What the fuck?
And 99 of the same idiots with me
Somebody wanted fame, somebody's money,
Someone was just bored
We gave a ghostly hope
Said that one get everything and it will cost 99 lives
You know that feeling when you're like trapped in a cage,
And you have nowhere to go, so you can only go ahead?
And we just had to go
In the gaze of the soldiers

What to do
Stop or go
Whose is that fight
They're innocent, but we are rivals
Don't want to lie
And I repeat myself in silence

This is my long walk
Down the corridor of death
This is my walk
Down the road of screams
We are the reflection in the Major's glasses
We are nothing

I heard my mother's cry in the noise of the crowd
But they all smiled and greeted us
We were heroes
While some of us didn't fall
And I heard him whisper:
"Son, your life is worth nothing"
But I wanted to prove that it is not truth
After all, we'll be nothing
Until we take up the arms

So what to do
Stop or go
Whose is that fight
They're innocent, but we are rivals
And I repeat myself in silence -
I no longer feel anything but pain
It won't happen again ever
And now time seems frozen
See the light ahead, just show me!

This is my long walk
Down the corridor of death
This is my walk
Down the road of screams
We are the reflection in the Major's glasses
We are nothing
