Granite Wall Lyrics
Those that fell today shall be
In solemn sculpture cast
Always held in reverence
In memory of the past
Named in tribute forevermore
The colours carved on the granite wall
Folded flags awarded
In the line of duty fallen
Draped upon the coffin lid
The banner never taken
The regimental crest
That still flies high
No colours lost, the epitaph
Attempt to take them and you shall die
Named in tribute forevermore
The colours carved on the granite wall
Carved upon the granite wall
Mankind on the brink of extinction
Few now left alive - the human race denied
Mourning
The tragic loss
Life cut short
This broken column
Immortal
Names shall be
Carved in stone
Upon the granite wall
In solemn sculpture cast
Always held in reverence
In memory of the past
The colours carved on the granite wall
In the line of duty fallen
Draped upon the coffin lid
The banner never taken
The regimental crest
That still flies high
No colours lost, the epitaph
Attempt to take them and you shall die
The colours carved on the granite wall
Few now left alive - the human race denied
The tragic loss
Life cut short
This broken column
Immortal
Names shall be
Carved in stone
Upon the granite wall

All about those who died in Vietnam and the guys still living...
This song is just pure fucking Metal...
No offense, but why would a british band put a song about the Vietnam War on an album that focuses on World War 1?
There's tons of granite walls in different countries for different wars. Its a generalization. Die for the country, you get your name on a granite wall.
