Safe Below Songtext

they said they would prevent a war to stop the suffering for ever more no wars to fight no blood to shed but they were lying we'll soon be dead chorus: and now you're as good as dead and now you're as good as dead the button is pushed it's all begun those alive they'll soon be none in the distance a yellow sun and still we pray for death to come chorus the troops are out there on patrol passing burnt lumps as they go my clothes are in shreds i can barely see whilst all around is death and disease chorus i picture maggie in my mind safe below she's feeling fine she has no burns no torn off limbs she sits on her arse and plays silly games chorus
