Sabaton en livstid i kring

Select language to translate this lyric

[Swedish version:]
I look around and see my home disappearing
My time at home now feels far too short
Just youth, hardly a man when duty called me
Whether I will see my home again I do not know
Among relatives from my village I went out into battle
And the world burned
Before the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my motherland
But who misses me?
So see me as that
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never come home
But who mourns me?
Went into battle for Sweden, was baptized in blood
Out there death awaits, not heroism
In fields where kinsmen fall, no song is heard
Challenging our fate, once more
Far from home
Baptized and died in battle
And the world burned
Before the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my motherland
But who misses me?
So see me as the
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who mourns me?
And when my time is up
Then who cares?
They fight on
Does a soldier get a dignified end?
Go to sleep
Disappear
And never wake up
Before the war it can
Make a man
I give my life for my fatherland
But who misses me?
So see me as that
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never come home
But who mourns me?
[English version:]
A Lifetime Of War
Two ways to view the world so similar at times
Two ways to rule the world to justify their crimes
By kings and queens young men are sent to die in war
Their propaganda speaks those words been heard before
Two ways to view the world brought Europe down in flames
Two ways to rule
Has man gone insane?
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war.
It spreads like disease,
There's no sign of peace .
Religion and creed
Cause millions to bleed.
Three decades of war.
From dawn to dawn they're fighting,
Die where they stand
The fog of war lies thick
When armies scorch the land.
When all of Europe's burning
What can be done?
They've been to war a decade,
Two more to come
Long way from home
Baptized and died in battle
Lifetime at war
Has man gone insane?
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war.
It spreads like disease,
There's no sign of peace.
Religion and creed
Cause millions to bleed.
Three decades of war.
When they face death they're all alike
No right or wrong, rich or poor
No matter who they served before
Good or bad, they're all the same
Rest side by side now
Has man gone insane?
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war.
It spreads like disease,
There's no sign of peace.
Religion and creed
Cause millions to bleed.
Three decades of war.
Has man gone insane?
A few will remain
Who'll find a way
To live one more day
Through decades of war.
It spreads like disease,
There's no sign of peace.
Religion and creed
Cause millions to bleed.< br/>Three decades of war.
