Lyrics
Borderline
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lighting up the sky, the raging battle flares
Thunderous sound of war, taste of smoke in the air
Blood red sky reflects, the fire there below
The hand of fate, it may cast the final blow
Tonight for some will be a one way journey
Only the lucky will return
Tonight for some will be a lasting memory
The battle scars will always burn
Step in line
We're going to the Bordeline
Step in line
Take it, take it to the Bordeline
Step in line
We're going to the Bordeline
Step in line, one way, ticked to the Bordeline
No doubt you'll feel the fear, there's no use in pretending
Hear your heartbeat as you've never done before
Don't turn your back, on the cold, cold eye of danger
For you are the soldier and this is the war
Tonight there'll be no love, no such word as feeling
Blood will run freely from the knife
Today you fought for your king an country
Tonight you'll be fighting for your life
The sound that you most fear, you hear calling
