The Lyrics To this Song are : 
 
 Make his fight on the hill in the early day 
 Constant chill deep inside 
 Shouting gun, on the run through the endless grey 
 On they fight, for they are right, yes, but who's to say? 
 For a hill men would kill, why?  They do not know 
 Suffered wounds test their pride 
 Men of five, still alive through the raging glow 
 Gone insane from the pain that they surely know 
 
    For whom the bell tolls 
    Time marches on 
    For whom the bell tolls 
 
 Take a look to the sky just before you die 
 It is the last time he will 
 Blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky 
 Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry 
 Stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery 
 He hears the silence so loud 
 Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be 
 Now they see what will be, blinded eyes to see 
 
    For whom the bell tolls 
    Time marches on 
    For whom the bell tolls
