Crimson Shores Lyrics

Omaha
The shore on which we fall
On D-Day
Such a crimson day

Thousands
On each side here fall
We land there
Into the jaws of death

Step on the cold wet sand
Run forward for your life
Land on the Easy Green
Stay low try not to die

The water painted red
All over bodies wet
Now leave the landing craft
The beach is my liferaft

Into Normandy
Into the beaches
Into the madness
Into the darkness

Hope has no meaning
All around screaming
Wade through the water
Into the slaughter

Bullets are flying
Our names they are calling
All around falling
We answer the calling

Into the bloodbath
Into the madness
Into the world war
Land on the Crimson Shores

Head to the german casemate
Duck as the MGs sing
Keep moving don’t just lay there
Need to keep on fighting

Shattered is our battalion
Round up all men you can
The bluffs defence our target
With me my fellow man

Reload and aim your firearms
Hand me the Bangalore
Blow open all the wires
Conquer this blood red shore

Into the Crimson Shores we land
Off to face our death our souls they must be damned
Into the Crimson Shores we fall
Off to certain death we now stand here tall

Into Normandy
Into the beaches
Into the madness
Into the darkness

Hope has no meaning
All around screaming
Wade through the water
Into the slaughter

Bullets are flying
Our names they are calling
All around falling
We answer the calling

Into the bloodbath
Into the madness
Into the world war
Land on the Crimson Shores

Omaha The shore on which we fell
On D-Day
Such a crimson day
We landed
And victory we brought

Into the madness
Land on the crimson shore
