Sane Insanity

Between the crosses, row on row As they went up to die In foul dugouts, anguished by rats Startled by the moving tides They marched in fateful fellowship A certain cure for bloodlust They saw a thousand Christ go by For what is dead they’ll hardly fight Bursting gas shells ringing While birds still bravely singing Sane insanity Sane insanity Where hate throbs out in endless pain Flash revealed the toxic rain This war is justified with sane insanity When death returns with scary shades Dying heroes’ senseless deeds This war is justified with sane insanity At some disputed barricades A rendezvous with death Merciless retribution Countless rounds in heads and chests Where love gets lost in blissful sleep On frightful slopes of battered hills The iron storm tears bloody wounds We can’t escape the pack of hounds The armistice rejected Decay in our trenches Sane insanity Sane insanity Where hate throbs out in endless pain Flash revealed the toxic rain This war is justified with sane insanity When death returns with scary shades Dying heroes’ senseless deeds This war is justified with sane insanity Between the crosses, row on row As they went up to die Where hate throbs out in endless pain Flash revealed the toxic rain This war is justified with sane insanity When death returns with scary shades Dying heroes’ senseless deeds This war is justified with sane insanity
