There was an order, so I'm running, running ahead
There is an enemy over the hills
Somebody fell down, I don't even look who
It can be me in a while
And I'm running, running though I lack the strength
I can't, I can't kill myself like this
Kill myself just like that
I wouldn't want to, I wouldn't want to die
Though, what sense does it make
When I've sold the freedom, so I've sold the life, the life too
When I've sold the freedom, so I've sold the life
Because of what I was, I was, I was stupid
Fright all around, death all around
I can't watch the spilling blood
Why, what do I fight for
I wasn't allowed to think, I just have to kill
Hundred pounds a week for life is a bit too little
It's just enough for a legionary coffin
For a legionary coffin and a salute of honour
And a salute of honour
