The Unkillable Soldier Lyrics
[Intro]
Into the fire through trenches and mud
Son of Belgium and Ireland with war in his blood
Leading the charge into hostile barrage
By design, he was made for the frontline
[Verse 1]
Studied law with a thirst for war
Fought in Africa, wanted more
Back in Europe then straight to France
He's joining the allied advance
Through the Somme and the Devil's Wood
All the battles that he withstood
Born a soldier, enjoyed the war
He always kept coming for more
[Pre-Chorus]
Never diе, shot through the eye
Nеver surrender however they try
How they try, shot through the eye
He'll never die
[Chorus]
At the edge of madness, in a time of sadness
An immortal soldier finds his home
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
No fear of death, he's unshakeable
[Verse 2]
In the battles, when he was shot
Kept on fighting and never stopped
In Arras, Cambrai, Passchendaele
Ignoring his wounds he prevailed
[Pre-Chorus]
Save the day, he'll never stray
Facing the foes that are coming his way
Come his way, he'll never stray
Saving the day
[Chorus]
At the edge of madness, in a time of sadness
An immortal soldier finds his home
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
Forged for the war, he's unbreakable
At the edge of madness, he will show no sadness
Never broken, he'll be back for more
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
No fear of death, he's unshakeable
[Bridge]
Into the fire through trenches and mud
Son of Belgium and Ireland with war in his blood
Leading the charge into hostile barrage
By design, he was made for the frontline
[Pre-Chorus]
Never die, shot through the eye
Never surrender however they try
How they try, shot through the eye
He'll never die
[Chorus]
At the edge of madness, in a time of sadness
An immortal soldier, edge of madness
At the edge of madness, in a time of sadness
An immortal soldier finds his home
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
Forged for the war, he's unbreakable
At the edge of madness, he will show no sadness
Never broken, he'll be back for more
Proven under fire, over trench and wire
No fear of death, he is forged for the war, he will always be coming for more

Joakim Brodén:
Adrian Carton de Wiart was Belgian-born and fighting for the British in World War I but had also fought earlier in the Boer War and further back. He was almost like a comic book character, this over-the-top super-soldier who just wouldn’t die no matter what the enemy threw at him. He...
