Sting - Something the Boy Said слова песни
When we set out on this journeyThere were no doubts in our mindsWe set our eyes to the distanceWe would find what we would findWe took courage from our numbersWhat we sought we did not fearSometimes we`d glimpse a shadow fallingThe shadow would disappearBut our thoughts kept returningTo something the boy saidAs we turned to goHe said you`ll never see our faces againYou`ll be food for a carrion crowEvery step we took todayOur thoughts would always strayFrom the wind on the moor so wildTo the words of the captain`s childSomething the boy saidIn the circles we made with our firesWe talked of the pale afternoonThe clouds were like dark ridersFlying on the face of the moonWe spoke our fears to the captainAnd asked what his son could knowFor we would never have marched so farTo be food for a crowEvery step we took todayOur thoughts would always strayFrom the wind on the moor so wildTo the words of the captain`s childSomething the boy saidWhen I awoke this morningThe sun`s eye was red as bloodThe stench of burning corpsesFaces in the mudAm I dead or am I living?I`m too afraid to care, I`m too afraid to knowI`m too afraid to look behind meAt the feast of the crowWe spoke our fears to the captainAnd asked what his son could knowFor we would never have marched so farTo be food for a crow
