Soldiers Feelings through WW2
Story behind the song
SSG WEEK 25
Lyrics
The Dead Stay Silent
The battle field is a lonely place in the darkness of the night
There's no elctricity out here the smallest noise gives me a fright
And the stench of rotting corpses churns my guts inside
I'll do my bit for my country I just want to get home alive
For our sargent was captured just the other bloody night
His favourite little saying is something I can't forget
He told me when we first met
NOT ONLY THE DEAD STAY SILENT
Laying here in this god forsaken trench
No talking or singing not even praying
Do those bloody leaders really give a bloody dam
Do they really care
I think it would be unreasonable and even more bloody rare
For our sargent was captured just the other bloody night
His favourite little saying is something I can't forget
He told me when we first met
NOT ONLY THE DEAD STAY SILENT
Thats right
Not only the dead stay silent
But they are
