Master Sargent Leaving

The sea is full of the dead and the
dying Mothers and daughters are crying
I don't care what you say
Captain, take me away
Leaving this battle, am I
In the town
The lords and ladies are lying
While honest folk do the dying
I don't care what was said
Watch the water turn red
And leaving this battle, am I
And you'll get no more killing from me If it's truly my fate
Then god lose the state
And I'll run for the rest of my days
So, ma'am
Please, take my sword and revolver
It's the least that this soldier
might offer For the price you could fetch
For an officer's arm
May pay for the grave of your son
And I've gone
To where guilty men do their running
Their hiding, their sleeping,
their slumming I don't care what was said
Watch the water turn red
And this shadowy conscience is mine
And you'll get no more killing from me If it's truly my fate
Then god lose the state
And I'll run for the rest of my days
And you'll get no more killing from me If it's truly my fate
Then god lose the state
Then I'll run for the rest of my days
