We met as soulmates on Paris Island We left as inmates from an asylum And we were sharp, as sharp as knives And we were so gung-ho to lay down our lives We came in ***, like tameless horses We left in plastic, as numbered corpses And we learned fast to travel light Our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight We had no home front, we had no soft soul They sent us playboys, they gave us bar hope We dug in deep and shot on sight And prayed to Jesus Christ with all of our might We had no cameras to shoot the landscape We passed the hashpoint and played our doorsteps And it was dark, so dark at night And we held on to each other like brother to brother We promised our mothers we'd write And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down together Yes, we would all go down together Remember Charlie? Remember Bacon? They left their childhood on every acre And who was wrong? And who was right? It didn't matter in the thick of the fights We held the day in the palm of our hands They ruled the night And the night seemed to last as long as six weeks On Paris Island we held the coastline They held the highlands And they were sharp, as sharp as knives They heard the hum of our motors They counted the rotors And waited for us to arrive And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down together Yes, we would all go down together Yes, we would all go down together Thank you for watching!
