i stood with the dead - michael ippolito lyrics

Loading...

i stood with the dead, so forsaken and still:
when dawn was grey i stood with the dead
and my slow heart said, ‘you must k!ll, you must k!ll:
‘soldier, soldier, morning is red’

on the shapes of the slain in their crumpled disgrace
i stared for a while through the thin cold rain…
‘o lad that i loved, there is rain on your face
‘and your eyes are blurred and sick like the plain.’

i stood with the dead … they were dead; they were dead;
my heart and my head beat a march of dismay:
and gusts of the wind came dulled by the guns
‘fall in!’ i shouted; ‘fall in for your pay!’
