Over The Top

When the dogs of war are dancing
And the arrows hit their mark
When your days are getting darker
When there's daggers in the dark.

You will always find your spotlight
You will always find your feet
Screaming til your lungs expire
Ready, steady, aim and fire.

Did you think it would be easy?
You're one footstep from defeat
But a soldier shan't surrender
And a hero can't retreat.

Though your enemies surround you
And they've got you in their sights
Sound the bugles
All set sarge
Ready, steady, aim and charge

Over the top my friend
Unto the breach my friend
Rend the unending night
You've got your armour on
You've had your warpaint done
Now it's time to fight.

When your sisters are behind you
They're your brothers marching too
Then the worrior within you
Comes to run the dragon through
Though your darkest demon comes the day that you doubt
You become the he-man, every demon you rout
Turn to face your fear
Ready, steady, aim and cheer.

Over the top my friend
Unto the breach my friend
Rend the unending night
You've got your armour on
You've had your warpaint done
And you'll be a man my son
So get out there and fight.
