legion of the damned

Yngwie Malmsteen

Pre-Chorus:
Legion of the Damned
Legion of the Damned

Deprived of our lives, pushed into war
Our fearless leader lies, he's rotten to the core
As per instruction, march through no man's land
Machines of destruction, combat hand to hand.

Chorus 1:
Marching over frozen water, soon reaching the front
Into the mercilous slaughter, on the human hunt.
Battling the enemy that we don't know
We're strangers in a strange land
Losing it all, we are sinking so low
We're the Legion of the Damned.

Chorus 2:
Legion of the Damned
Legion of the Damned
Legion of the Damned...


Soldiers without faith, fight fire with fire
Don't know why we hate, so we'll die trying
This is madness without end, are we men or fools
There's no honour to defend, we obey insane rules.

Mortars blowing us to pieces
Hell is breaking loose
Minds all sick, full of diseases
No one sees the truth.


Repeat Chorus 1 & 2.

When it's said and done
There'll be no victory
They're blocking out the sun
All that's left is misery.
