Crimson Shores Lyrics


Omaha

The shore on which we fall

On D-Day

Such a crimson day

Thousands

On each side here fall

We land there

Into the jaws of death

Step on the cold wet sand

Run forward for your life

Land on the Easy Green

Stay low try not to die

The water painted red

All over bodies wet

Now leave the landing craft

The beach is my liferaft

Into Normandy

Into the beaches

Into the madness

Into the darkness

Hope has no meaning

All around screaming

Wade through the water

Into the slaughter

Bullets are flying

Our names they are calling

All around falling

We answer the calling

Into the bloodbath

Into the madness

Into the world war

Land on the Crimson Shores

Head to the german casemate

Duck as the MGs sing

Keep moving don’t just lay there

Need to keep on fighting

Shattered is our battalion

Round up all men you can

The bluffs defence our target

With me my fellow man

Reload and aim your firearms

Hand me the Bangalore

Blow open all the wires

Conquer this blood red shore

Into the Crimson Shores we land

Off to face our death our souls they must be damned

Into the Crimson Shores we fall

Off to certain death we now stand here tall

Into Normandy

Into the beaches

Into the madness

Into the darkness

Hope has no meaning

All around screaming

Wade through the water

Into the slaughter

Bullets are flying

Our names they are calling

All around falling

We answer the calling

Into the bloodbath

Into the madness

Into the world war

Land on the Crimson Shores

Omaha The shore on which we fell

On D-Day

Such a crimson day

We landed

And victory we brought

Into the madness

Land on the crimson shore
