In coal black trenches in the still of the night Placed in perfect view scattered upon a hill Below flickering stars they're feeding their hate Eagerly waiting for the moment to kill March of boots in numbers unknown Piercing the silence, disrupts the heavenly peace The roar of trumptes the bloodbells chime Symphony of violence Psalm of the dead They're holding the lines for glory or death Knee deep in mud of the hand digged trench Where thousands and millions flies feast Upon the rotting and decaying flesh of the dead The sight... the stench... the everlasting nightmare That even with closed eyes cannot be unseen In coal black trenches in the still of the night Placed in perfect view scattered upon a hill Below flickering stars they're feeding their hate Eagerly waiting for the moment to kill March of boots in numbers unknown Piercing the silence, disrupts the heavenly peace The roar of trumptes the bloodbells chime Symphony of violence Psalm of the dead A choir of weeping angels In the deathbringers dance
