about

Written about war across the generations, drawing from history with the beaches of Normandy and the desert of the Gulf War. Whilst the verses touch on the fear, apprehension and of loss as troops move into battle, the chorus issues a battle cry for attack and the final push to achieve victory before coming to a stop, as abruptly as the war ending, or death takes you!

lyrics

Head towards the shore, get ready to go
Lead rain falls and casualties grow
The beach is awash, blood and limbs all around
Suffered heavy losses but we’re gaining ground

Puking on the floor as the apprehension builds
No preparation for those about to kill
Spray from the sea assaulting my senses
As a shell hits and my whole body tenses

Push against hate once and for all
We’ll stand upon this hill standing tall
We must keep fighting, victory at hand
Standing on this beach with blood on the sand

Taking cover behind our fallen allies
Looking all around as our comrades die
Drive forward let the courage surge
Destroy their bulwark
disease must be purged

The war machine churns the bodies for all
It has no allegiance most of us will fall
Mortar fire blasts friends and foes apart
Bodies piling up forming human ramparts

Push against hate once and for all
We’ll stand upon this hill standing tall
We must keep fighting, victory at hand
Standing on this beach with blood on the sand

Bodies litter the beaches are covered
The fields are no different flowers are smothered
The air of death touches all in its proximity
we’ve staved it off our victory in divinity

Stand atop the crest as the dregs are picked off
Reflecting on the violence flag held aloft
Conquered is this tyranny and forward we run
Until this corruption is killed this isn’t won

Push against hate once and for all
We’ll stand upon this hill standing tall
We must keep fighting, victory at hand
Standing on this beach with blood on the sand
