korean englishman - the soldier and the priest lyrics

[verse 1]
tho brothers, born to jane, identical
growing up, were close, inseparable
both on paths to serve and save the least
one a soldier, one a church of england priest
one day a new adventure came their way
a trip to south korea on holiday
the foolish men had walked into a trap
who knows if they will ever make it back?
their eyes light up at sights they’ve never seen
cinemas in swimming pools and bars stand so high… no, tall!
they gorge themselves like fattened calves on chicken
one last time before their army training

[chorus]
no trial on unknown paths can break the bond that brothers have at heart
united in the end, i’ll pray for you my brother and my friend
no trial on unknown paths can break the bond that brothers have at heart
united in the end, i’ll pray for you my brother and my friend
the soldier and the priest

[verse 2]
they face their fears and jump out of the sky
swinging from a rope, they land, they fumble, struggling to cope
as things go south the training feels so real
brother carries brother across the training field
the captain’s crew surround them, camouflaged
heavy fire from gun flakes and a meatball barrage
priest hides underground to escape the wreck
which only exacerbates his turtle neck
their rations gone, or just inedible
the chances of survival, skeptical
one turns to the other and he speaks
one last act of love in sure defeat
“in times like this, we used to bicker
i’ll give you my last mini snickers!”
[chorus]
no trial on unknown paths can break the bond that brothers have at heart
united in the end, i’ll pray for you my brother and my friend
no trial on unknown paths can break the bond that brothers have at heart
united in the end, i’ll pray for you my brother and my friend
the soldier and the priest

[verse 3]
and as they reach the base they now call home
and sit among the soldiers who welcomed them as their own
there are no soldiers here, there are no priests
just brothers, friends and family here to eat
just brothers, friends and family here to eat
