[Verse 1]

Shooting from behind

Spitting from the left

How long I'll stay alive

When blood flows down my back

Fratricidal slaughter

No enemy to observe

Premeditated murder

To await the final shot


[Pre-Chorus]

We were on the same side

Don't know when I close my eyes

Suicidal duteousness

Homicidal helplessness

Hostile fire all I see

Terminal supremacy

Death could be the only way

To get out of this place


[Chorus]

Friendly fire

Compassion is lost

Friendly firе

Friendly fire blast


[Verse 2]

Napalm hell surroundеd me

Screeching gatling guns

Hissing fifty BMGs

Among the eagles and the stars

I would trade my finest gold

To shoot that fellows down

Within the peaceful skies above

And leave that firestorm


[Pre-Chorus]

We were on the same side

Don't know when I close my eyes

Suicidal duteousness

Homicidal helplessness

Hostile fire all I see

Terminal supremacy

Death could be the only way

To get out of this place


[Chorus]

Friendly fire

Compassion is lost

Friendly fire

Friendly fire blast


[Verse 3]

My comrade is lying next to mine

He stopped the bullet destined for me

Spreading guts that burned my eyes

No more control in that crimson tide

The friendly terror's final end

My comrade's blood, mixed with mine

Calling out from depth of souls

The warm red blood that turns to slime


[Chorus]

Friendly fire

Compassion is lost

Friendly fire

Friendly fire blast
