Trench warfare is a type of land warfare using occupied fighting lines consisting largely of trenches, in which troops are significantly protected from the enemy's small arms fire and are substantially sheltered from artillery. The most famous use of trench warfare is the Western Front in World War I. It has become a byword for stalemate, attrition, sieges and futility in conflict.
Trench warfare occurred when a revolution in firepower was not matched by similar advances in mobility, resulting in a grueling form of warfare in which the defender held the advantage. On the Western Front in 1914–18, both sides constructed elaborate trench and dugout systems opposing each other along a front, protected from assault by barbed wire. The area between opposing trench lines (known as "no man's land") was fully exposed to artillery fire from both sides. Attacks, even if successful, often sustained severe casualties. The efficacy of trench warfare was effectively ended with the invention and adoption of the tank.
We've been pinned down, I've just shot my last round, I want to run and hide, It might save our lives, Is this the way we will spend our last days? If I have to die, just don't ask why. I see right through you, your going down. Nothing's in the way. I don't need to see your face. The writings on the wall, my eyes wide open. It will take some time for me to clear my mind. There will come a day, it might be just fine. Is this the way we will spend our last days? If i have to die just don't ask why. I see right through you your going down. Nothings in the way, I don't need to see your face, The writings on the wall, My eyes wide open, Your life means so much can't you see? So far when I feel let down your always there for me.
