Lyrics Forgotten Sons - Marillion
Armalite,
street
lights,
nightsights
Searching
the
roofs
for
a
sniper,
a
viper,
a
fighter
Death
in
the
shadows
he′ll
maim
you,
he'll
wound
you,
he′ll
kill
you
For
a
long
forgotten
cause,
on
not
so
foreign
shores
Boys
baptised
in
wars
Morphine,
chill
scream,
bad
dream
Serving
as
numbers
on
dogtags,
flakrags,
sandbags
Your
girl
has
married
your
best
friend,
loves
end,
poison
pen
Your
flesh
will
always
creep,
tossing
turning
sleep
The
wounds
that
burn
so
deep
Your
mother
sits
on
the
edge
of
the
world
When
the
cameras
start
to
roll
Panoramic
viewpoint
resurrect
the
killing
fold
Your
father
drains
another
beer,
he's
one
of
the
few
that
cares
Crawling
behind
a
Saracen's
hull
from
the
safety
of
his
living
room
chair
Forgotten
sons,
forgotten
sons,
forgotten
sons
And
so
as
I
patrol
in
the
valley
of
the
shadow
of
the
tricolour
I
must
fear
evil,
for
I
am
but
mortal
and
mortals
can
only
die
Asking
questions,
pleading
answers
from
the
nameless
faceless
watchers
That
stalk
the
carpeted
corridors
of
Whitehall
Who
orders
desecration,
mutilation,
verbal
masturbation
I
in
the
guarded
bureaucratic
wombs
Minister,
minister
care
for
your
children,
order
them
not
into
damnation
To
eliminate
those
who
would
trespass
against
you
For
whose
is
the
kingdom,
the
power,
the
glory
forever
and
ever,
Amen
Halt
who
goes
there,
Death,
approach
friend
You′re
just
another
coffin
on
its
way
down
the
emerald
aisle
When
your
children′s
stony
glances
mourn
your
death
in
a
terrorist's
smile
The
bomber′s
arm
placing
fiery
gifts
on
the
supermarket
shelves
Alley
sings
with
shrapnel
detonate
a
temporary
hell
Forgotten
Sons
From
the
dole
queue
to
the
regiment
a
profession
in
a
flash
But
remember
Monday
signings
when
from
door
to
door
you
dash
On
the
news
a
nation
mourns
you
unknown
soldier,
count
the
cost
For
a
second
you'll
be
famous
but
labelled
posthumous
Forgotten
sons,
forgotten
sons
Peace
on
earth
and
mercy
mild,
Mother
Brown
has
lost
her
child
Just
another
Forgotten
Son
