Frontline
Frontline Warriors: Defiance in Adversity
Lyrics
Fear and hate and stinking breath
Fear, hate, and a negative atmosphere
Boy, never lose your faith
Encouragement to maintain faith despite challenges
Wake up, shave and bring your gun
Routine of preparation for a challenging day, possibly in a military context
Face another day
Facing the challenges of a new day
Keep the same song on your mind
Emphasizing continuity with a familiar song
Her picture in your heart
Preserving a loved one's image in one's heart
Pray they'll never have to
Hoping to avoid the need to return home in a casket
Send your body back to your mum
The potential consequence of military service
We are moving forward
Expressing progress and determination
We ain't cowards
Claiming bravery and refusing to be afraid
No tomorrow
Disregard for the future
We don't care at all
Apathy and indifference to consequences
80s heroes
Reference to heroes from the 80s
Silent soldiers
Those who fight silently
Sad tomorrow
A melancholic outlook on the future
We are the frontline
Repeated assertion of being the frontline, possibly representing a sense of duty or sacrifice
We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-Rainy days all look the same
Monotony and uniformity in challenging conditions
In this foreign land
Feeling out of place in a foreign environment
Don't ask yourself a question
Discouragement from questioning the situation
Don't you try to understand
Discouragement from seeking understanding
College boys are safe in town
The safety of privileged individuals in contrast to the frontline experience
And they don't like you
Antipathy from others who are not facing the same challenges
Suicide mission, we just fight
Describing the struggle as a mission with a high risk of self-harm
And stomp to change the rules
Fighting and rebelling against established norms
We are moving forward
Continuing to move forward despite challenges
We ain't cowards
Reiteration of bravery and determination
No tomorrow
Rejecting concern for the future
We don't care at all
Indifference to consequences
80s heroes
Reference to heroes from the 80s
Silent soldiers
Emphasis on silent, unrecognized sacrifice
Sad tomorrow
Anticipating a sorrowful future
We are the frontline
Repetition and emphasis on being the frontline
We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
-We are the frontline
Final assertion of being the frontline
