The Bite And Sting Lyrics - Lost Ground - Defeater

I've spent days in this trench in the snow, just my gun by my side 

It's cold and wet and you're all alone, up keeping watch at night 

The bite and the sting the bitter cold bring reminds you that you're still alive 

The hope and the pride that we all hold inside seems to break when another boy dies 

The bite and the sting the bitter cold bring makes you wish that you werent still alive 

The hope and the pride we all hold inside seems to break, seems to break 

We aint seen no Germans for days, we're just tired and sore 

And it feels like I'm wasted away, so I drink from my flask to stay warm 

Every bomb miles away, every faded engine cry 

Still makes your heart start to race, keeps you praying at night 

It's too quiet, too calm, for something not to be wrong so we sit as brothers in arms 

We wait and we shake, hear the roar of the tanks and the gunfire of the on-coming storm 

The ring in our ears, the cold rush of fear overtakes us with the enemy in sight. 

We stager but dont falter, I aim and pull the trigger and we fight, we fight, we fight 

But it all happens too fast, the blood of the sweat in my eyes 

For every man killed seem two of my friends fall to die 

Im down on my knees feel the pain in my gut and the snow is covered in blood 

Crawl to my captains side with his head on my knee says See too it, that my grave is kept clean.
