about

Stand Your Ground is the story of a young man killed in a pointless war.

lyrics

Stand Your Ground

Words and music © Tim Hudspith, February 1999


I joined up upon my eighteenth birthday
Now upon a battleship I sail
She’ll take me far to another country
Where I will join an infantry brigade

I stepped off the ship and into battle
And I watched my friends around me fall
How my dreams of glory soon were shattered
How I longed to shed this uniform

Stand your ground the officers they tell us
Stand your ground against the enemy
Stand your ground because you fight for justice
On your side is truth and liberty

I could feel the bullets cutting through me
And now I sense my life begin to fade
And I don’t need an officer to tell me
I gave my life for an infantry brigade

Stand your ground the officers they tell us
Stand your ground against the enemy
Stand your ground because you fight for justice
On your side is truth and liberty

And as I die these words are lost on me
And as I die these words are lost on me
