Born Again Songtext
von American Hitmen

Sitting in the emergency room watching a steady stream of mangled
Marines carried in on stretchers.
A slightly wounded Platoon Sergeant from Fox Company,
With tears welling in his eyes said "Here comes the whole damned
Company." Then turning to a friend he said "All the old guys got it.
All the old guys. I′ve got five men left in my platoon.
" Another young Marine died in the hospital after four hours on the
Operating table.
Where four surgeons working with steady
Intensity all the time dismantled him like a [inaudible].

Another arrived with one foot blown completely off,
The other hanging by a strip of skin.
The Corpsman who was cutting off the boot suddenly realized,
He was going through a lot of trouble for nothing,
And simply clipped off the piece of skin [inaudible] the mangled foot
Together into a pile of blood soaked clothing and bandages,
With another Corpsman,
Manning a push broom, was sweeping out the door.


I watched my friend's life slip away
Just the other day
I held on his hand as he screamed out in pain
He looked at me and said "some things must go this way"
So I got on my knees and I started to pray

I took another man′s life, just the other day
I was on a mission and that man got in my way
I know that I will see so many better days
But for him I cannot say the same

Will you ask me if I ever killed a man
I'll tell you "Yes, and I'll probably kill again!"
Because I′m born again

(Solo)

Will you ask me if I ever killed a man
I′ll tell you "Yes, and I'll probably kill again!"
Because I′m born again

Go, my brother
Be in peace
Leave the spoils
Of war at your feet

I said go

I said go
