[Argent 88]

But after what you wrote me about " The girl back home"  I found it fitting . I made this thread for you, and all like you.

But I hate that this had happened also.

Here is a hard rock band whose songs put war in the misery light it deserves, but the videos are not made by the band and the same song can have different videos from different perspectives.

LYRIXS

[Verse 1]
I have a phobia
A fear of the dark
Afraid to shoot strangers
The animal talks

Guns scare me shitless
But love gun's my friend
The sentinel's coming
But is this the end?

[Pre-Chorus]
Riding on this crazy train
I'm going paranoid
Watch me lose my mind
And break the law!
(Breaking the law! Breaking the law!)

[Chorus]
I'm a metal machine
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

I'm a metal machine
The rainbow in the dark is shining

Unholy metal machine
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

I'm a metal machine
The kings of metal ride the sky

[Verse 2]
Is this St. Anger
The ultimate sin?
Or have I really
A black knight within?

The gates of Babylon
Are open and wide
Shout at the devil
There's nowhere to hide!

[Pre-Chorus]
Fighting for the world
To keep the wild child in its cage
Broke my metal heart against the wall!
(Balls to the wall! Balls to the wall!)

[Chorus]
I'm a metal machine
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

I'm a metal machine
The rainbow in the dark is shining

Unholy metal machine
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

Come touch my metal machine
The kings of metal ride the sky

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Come touch my metal machine

[Chorus]
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

I'm a metal machine
The rainbow in the dark is shining

Come suck my metal machine
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

I'm a metal machine
The kings of metal ride the sky

Come know my metal machine
It's close to midnight
And he's barking at the moon

(Barking)
I'm a metal machine
The rainbow in the dark is shining

Come touch my metal machine
No, we will never fall
We're the masters of the world

Come suck my metal machine
No, we will never fall
We're masters of the...

+ 1 Bob. It is intense. SciFi uses the same approach.

Sorry no lyrics available. Only the music. It's from Finland.

  So far as that video showing the B17s and the BF109s in action, I enjoyed the video pictures composition, but the sound and lyrics, I just couldn't relate to.  Frankly, the lyrics seemed to be far removed from the pictures.
  Perhaps they were trying too hard to employ some type of double entendre.
 
   The  OP video of the "travelling soldier", was a 'bitter sweet' tale that has played out too often.  Here is a composition that is far older than you or I, or perhaps our ages added together, but it is another sweet/sad song;

  That other video with the homecoming GI, who finds his wife cheating on him... I doubt that happened as much as some think, but it did indeed happen.  Devastating !
 
  Nevertheless, I found it interesting..since I am scheduled to preach a rather extended message on December 6th.  I have decided to preach upon one of the ugliest words in our English language lexicon...that being BETRAYAL !
   
    Just a thought, just remember..  BETRAYAL, never comes from your enemies !
