Burning Grave Lyrics


Sir months before surrender

At the end of liberty road

We knew the price

That we might soon have to pan

Stranded near the center

Of the war torn Bastogne

We knew the end was near

We knew we would not be saved

Trapped in this iron tomb

Ready to meet our doom

The hearts of the brave still beat

Though they're sealed in this burning grave

Their last, desperate offensive

The German shells pierced our walls

We knew the ones we loved

Would soon be in tear

The flames we're relentless

Molten steel ignited the hull

We knew the pain would be severe

But there was no fear

Trapped in this iron tomb

Ready to meet our doom

The hearts of the brave still beat

Though they're sealed in this burning grave

The will of the warrior

Stokes the fires of freedom

The soul of the sacrifice

Saves the world of tomorrow

These tales of terror

Will they ignite the fire

In the heart of the future

No matter the sorrow?

Trapped in the tomb

Sealed by the strike of a Tiger

We struggle as flames grow higher

We know the price we will pay

Trapped in the tomb
