These empty fields
Now green with time
Cover the scars
Of life left behind

No white crosses
Or flowers to tell
The names of the missing
Or of those who fell

These Empty Fields
Hold your last breath

A shattered mind
A broken soul
If you survive
A life-long toll

"No man left behind"
That's the line you're told
Fighting for freedom
That's how you are sold

Trade in your name for a number
Trade your mind for sand
Fight 'til the death
Do you kill on command?

These Empty Fields
Hold your last breath

Blessed are the fallen
Whose bodies lie broken
Buried and crossed off
In these empty fields

Blessed are our fallen sons

These empty fields
These empty fields!
These empty fields are calling…me!
