[Verse 1: Dave Edwardson]
I woke up in the morning
Spent the night in the trenches again
The first thing I do is grab my gun
The enemy is near it was dangerous to sleep
I was lucky to have lived to see the sun
In a foreign land fighting for my country
Over words that the politicians said
I look and meet the eyes of an enemy soldier
Aiming his gun at my head

[Refrain: Chad Salter]
Stalemate

[Verse 2: Dave Edwardson]
Panicked thoughts run through my mind
Visions of my death unwind
Standing there shaking in terror
I clutch my gun in despair

[Verse 3: Dave Edwardson]
We look each other in the eyes
Then we both realise
That our roles are the same
I put down my gun and he walks away
Did that sound good?
