Mercy Kill

The thunder of the battle slowly fades
Into the sound of low mournful groans
I walk among the wounded as they lay
Among the dead in a field of flesh and stone

to    Soldier please do you have some water?
        Soldier please bring a blanket for the chill
        Soldier please tell my wife and daughter
        Can you spare a bullet for a Mercy Kill?

As the night falls on the life of those
That hope not to see another day
Angels are waiting for their souls
As their voices rise in agony and pain

to    Soldier please do you have some water?
        Soldier please bring a blanket for the chill
        Soldier please tell my wife and daughter
        Can you spare a bullet for a Mercy Kill?

Black and white are turning grey
An’ wrong and right are hard to say
