10. kingdom of the cross what is this place across the fields where poppies stretch and sway in flanders, days of war are gone but memories will remain comrades of their different coats came to fight and die from all sides they stood and fought and fell beneath the sky where is this land where i am now a million spirits cry a generation loved and lost never asking why it didn't matter much at all to the generals how you died but to your families back at home you were heroes side by side the unknown soldier never known a cross to mark your grave but we remember what you did in our hearts you will remain where is this land where i am now a million spirits cry a generation loved and lost never asking why so wave the flags and say goodbye to a generation lost they're marching into history to the kingdom the kingdom of the cross across the somme and flanders lay a generation gone came to fight the war of wars the father and the son marching bands and cheers of joy sent you on your way to face the bloody battlefields and lives just thrown away an inch of ground was heavy won and lost too much a price to pay young men lost their future gone that's all there is to say so wave the flags and say goodbye to a generation lost they're marching into history to the kingdom the kingdom of the cross the papers said you'd all be home for christmas the politicians sang their battle hymn soon the guns will start the slaughter and the end of innocence will begin there's no one left that made it home their eyes will see no more gone to meet their fallen friends in flanders' fields of war in the kingdom of the cross lay a generation gone remember they were men like us remember everyone so wave your flags and say goodbye to a generation lost they're marching into history to the slaughter and the loss remember a generation lost they're marching out together to the kingdom to the kingdom of the cross
