Lyrics Skullhead - Fighting For Victory

The battle for Tobruk was a long and bloody one,
as the artillery fire rained on and on
Casualties were high, on either side,
but still they carried on to win or die
Bravery reigned and heroes were born,
as the fight in the desert went on and on
Living in a foxhole must have been tough,
but they still carried on, they didn't give up

Chorus:
Fighting for victory, in the middle of the desert
All those brave and fearless men risking their lives
Fighting for victory, in the middle of the desert
Looking back on history, was it all worthwhile?

A nine month siege befell both sides
As the soldiers of the British and the soldiers of the Reich,
fought against each other for victory,
Defying death and the misery
As Rommel kept advancing towards Tobruk,
to take this place that he wanted so much
But the bravery and courage of all those men,
denied him his fate as history did tell

Chorus

Now the battle's over a lot has been forgotten
but not by the men who fought in the war
Only now are they realizing,
the futility of it all
Fighting in the desert it must have been tough,
but at the time it was the right thing to do
But we all know that they were betrayed,
by the traitors controlled by the Jews

Chorus
