Camel - Drafted lyrics

rate me

Nude's thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door. The postman muttered something about wishing he could go too and handed over a yellow envelope.

It was a command long overdue that called for healthy, young men.

In reply to your request,

please find...

I hereby protest.

To the ways and means you use

you know...

I cannot refuse.

So I'll take this vow

of Loyalty.

Fight for the right,

You have said,

To be free.

When this time has run its course,

I must...

Live without remorse.

For the deeds I'm bound to do,

I know...

it's all the same to you.

But I won't forget

the memory...

Taking a life,

for a life...

to be free.
