With mud and guts up to our knees
Push on Push on! To No Man's Land we go
Our letters have been written with last goodbyes
We climb the wall
We fight our sorrow
We fight the fear
We fight for what we do not know
With memories of you locked in our hearts
One final kiss and a prayer on our lips
We fight with all our strength
Through our sorrow and our fear

Push on Push on! To No Man's Land we go
Through mud and guts
The blood of those we do not know
Gunned down
We fall to our knees
Skyward we look
At heaven we pray
For whom we fought we do not know

My mother, thoughts of you swirling through my mind
I cry for you in this, my last hour
Please do not weep for me
But please forgive me
For whom I killed I do not know
For whom I died I do not know
