"Lost In Battle Overseas"

Lost in battle overseas
Next thing you know you're on your knees
If you trust in someone on the screen
Then you'll be lost and overseas
Always sharing the time on your hands
Think of who plans
The future for you
There's nothing you can do
So you're in a uniform
And it's your calm before the storm
Where is it taking us

One sign of the cross
And you're let loose
How long is the stretch of this hangman's noose
You kill someone and it's just for gain
We'll end up losing just the same
Always sharing your time with no plans
Think of who hands
The future to you
There's nothing you can do
So you're in a uniform
And it's your calm before the storm
Where is it taking us
Where is it taking us
What does it do for you
This one sign of the cross

One sign of the cross...

Lost in battle overseas
The last thing we'll know is on our knees begging "Please..."
If you trust in someone on the screen
Then you'll be lost and overseas
Always sharing the time on your hands
Think of who plans
The future for you
There's nothing you can do
So you're in a uniform
And it's your calm before the storm
Where is it taking us
Where is it taking us
What does it do for you
This one sign of the cross

So we are lost in battle overseas
We are lost
We are lost in battle overseas
We are lost in battle overseas
We are lost...
In battle overseas
