As he held to his rifle and prayed not to die
But the silence of night was shattered by fire
As guns and grenades blasted sharp through the air
One after another his comrades were slaughtered
A morgue of marines alone standing there

He crouched ever lower, ever lower, in fear
They can"t let me die, they can"t let me die here
I"ll cover myself with the mud and the earth
I"ll cover myself I know I"m not brave
The earth, the earth, the earth is my grave
