1
When we set out on this journey
2
There were no doubts in our minds
3
We set our eyes to the distance
4
We would find what we would find
5
We took courage from our numbers
6
What we sought we did not fear
7
Sometimes we'd glimpse a shadow falling
8
The shadow would disappear
9
But our thoughts kept returning
10
To something the boy said
11
As we turned to go
12
He said you'll never see our faces again
13
You'll be food for a carrion crow
14
Every step we took today
15
Our thoughts would always stray
16
From the wind on the moor so wild
17
To the words of the captain's child
18
Something the boy said
19
In the circles we made with our fires
20
We talked of the pale afternoon
21
The clouds were like dark riders
22
Flying on the face of the moon
23
We spoke our fears to the captain
24
And asked what his son could know
25
For we would never have marched so far
26
To be food for a crow
27
Every step we took today
28
Our thoughts would always stray
29
From the wind on the moor so wild
30
To the words of the captain's child
31
Something the boy said
32
When I awoke this morning
33
The sun's eye was red as blood
34
The stench of burning corpses
35
Faces in the mud
36
Am I dead or am I living?
37
I'm too afraid to care, I'm too afraid to know
38
I'm too afraid to look behind me
39
At the feast of the crow
40
We spoke our fears to the captain
41
And asked what his son could know
42
For we would never have marched so far
43
To be food for a crow
44
