VibeFoundry - New Year's Battlefield | Country Rock

A dark and haunting redneck rock ballad that takes you back to a Civil War battlefield on New Year's Eve. A soldier torn from his family reflects on the cost of war and the hope for survival as the clock strikes midnight. This powerful and emotional song captures the sacrifices made on the battlefield and the longing for home.

Lyrics:
December's chill cuts through the air,
Home's so close, but I'm not there.
A letter torn, a promise burned,
To ashes now, no way returned.

New Year's dawn, it breaks in pain,
No fireworks, just cold and rain.
A soldier's heart, a battle's cost,
In war's cruel grip, all hope is lost.

The stars above are cold and gray,
They mock my dreams of holiday.
The rifle's weight, the blood-soaked ground,
No family near, no joyful sound.

The midnight sky lights up in flame,
Another year, it feels the same.
No cheers, no hugs, no glass of cheer,
Just echoes of the war I hear.

The clock strikes twelve, no cheers, no song,
The night's so quiet, but it feels so wrong.
The Southland cries, its sons all fall,
A broken world, where shadows call.

I wrote my name in frozen mud,
A soldier's grave marked not by blood.
If I should fall, no one will know,
Just one more soul where shadows grow.

I dreamed of home, a fire’s glow,
Her gentle hands, her voice so low.
But here I stand, in death’s embrace,
This battlefield’s my resting place.

New Year's dawn, it breaks in pain,
No fireworks, just cold and rain.
A soldier's heart, a battle's cost,
In war's cruel grip, all hope is lost.

The frost is biting, the sky is black,
A New Year's gone, there's no way back.
The Southland cries, the night feels cold,
This tale of loss will not grow old.
