The whistle sound, Tooooooot!
"Up and Over!!!" Is the command
The fear echoes all around
Yet if we think a bullet is sure to penetrate us.
Run. Run for your life.
Watch for the flying ammunition
Watch for the bodies
Run. Run for the bunkers.
Dive. Dive out the way.
Hide in bodies
Shoot ammunition
Dive. Dive as far as you can.
Learn. Learn from your mistakes.
Get hit and go down
Go down and get straight back up
Learn. Learn to survive.
Hit. Hit below my throught.
The bullet hits-
Starving me of vital messages.
Hit. I go down.
