- Tank - The War Drags Ever on from the album Honour And Blood
LYRICS
A war is raging that we don't understand
And I doubt that we can
There's no mistaking the mad sons of Islam
As they spill blood on the sand
A strange religion, that destroys through the Koran
Freedom's lost in this land
Hades or heaven. they're under it's command
Whaterever rights had a man
Pre-chorus
We'll hear the bomb blasts round' the world
With two world wars passed they want to start the third
As they aruge 'bout the planes they shot down
And count the dead they have found
An unholy war that's raising hell to the ground
Chorus
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
ever on
An arm is severed with a gun still in it's hand
And it's just left to be damned
Their main endeavour has not gone as it was planned
Shoot the boys where they stand
War is forever but as if we had the time
To change their thoughts in their minds
This war will never reflect on all their kind
They should be glad just to die
Pre-chorus
We'll hear the bomb blasts round' the world
With two world wars passed they want to start the third
As they aruge 'bout the planes they shot down
And count the dead they have found
An unholy war that's raising hell to the ground
Chorus
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
ever on
Guitar solo
A war is raging that we don't understand
And I doubt that we can
There's no mistaking the mad sons of Islam
As they spill blood on the sand
A strange religion, that destroys through the Koran
Freedom's lost in this land
Hades or heaven. they're under it's command
Whaterever rights had a man
Pre-chorus
We'll hear the bomb blasts round' the world
With two world wars passed they want to start the third
As they aruge 'bout the planes they shot down
And count the dead they have found
An unholy war that's raising hell to the ground
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
Guitar solo
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on
The war drags ever on

当時私は高校生の女子で周りにHMなんて聞く人もなかったけれど53のおばさんになった今でもまったく古くさくもならず変わらず私に力を与えてくれるこのバンドとこのアルバムこの曲が私の青春にあったことを誇りに思う。
ALGY WARD drags ever on... HE is Tank and nobody else. THIS is metal. THIS is one of the most underrated albums ever. Cheers for your attention.
And erm... cheers Des Tröyer for all the nice uploads.
I've loved this album ever since I bought it as a "blind buy" from the cassette bargain at my local record store back in 1987. Very underrated.
R.I.P ALGY WARD. 😔
Pure Metal! Greetings from Brasil!
This is one of the absolute greatest classic metal songs! It's scary that this song is from the 80's and the lyrics are so close to what is going on now!
Keith Holm The Gulf War was heating up at this point I think and climaxed in the 90s.
Very prophetic.
great guitar sound, and interesting intro, great metal band.
"A war is raging that we don't understand

Holy shit they knew. They knew! How did they know? Twenty years in Afghanistan, and they wrote the anthem decades before it even started. Amazing.
This song is a real masterpiece...so brilliant and so full of energy...Love it to death...I always come back to it here and there in my walk of life...Cheers mates...May the war never end...!!!
I'm absolutely agree with this! I just really want those 80's NWOBHM bands, albums back! Since then I still listening heavy metal, but unfortunatelly I didn't know about TANK until 2007... I'll make up leeway!
