The death must wait => Death or the dead ?? The death is unusual

A short man from Texas
A man of the wild
Thrown into combat
Where bodies lie piled
Hides his emotions
His blood's running cold
Just like his victories,
His story unfolds
Bright, a white light
If there'd be any glory in war
Let it rest on men like him
Dead men will never come back
Crosses grow on Anzio
Where no soldiers sleep
And where Hell's six feet deep
That death does wait
There's no debate
So charge and attack,
Going to Hell and back
A man of the 15th
A man of can-do
Friends fall around him
And yet he came through
Let them fall face down
If they must die
Making it easier
To say goodbye
Bright, a white light
If there'd be any glory in war
Let it rest on men like him
Who went to Hell and came back
Crosses grow on Anzio
Where no soldiers sleep
And where Hell's six feet deep
That death does wait
There's no debate
So charge and attack,
Going to Hell and back
Oh gather round me
And listen while I speak
Of a war
Where Hell is six feet deep
And all along the shore
Where cannons still roar
They're haunting my dreams
They're still there when I sleep
He saw crosses grow on Anzio
Where no soldiers sleep
And where Hell's six feet deep
That death does wait
There's no debate
He charged and attacked,
He went to Hell and back
- A short man from Texas
A man of the wild:
Audie Murphy
- Anzio:
The Battle of Anzio and Monte Casino
Lines about “crosses grow on Anzio” evoke one of the brutal WWII campaigns where many soldiers died, grounding the song in a specific historical moment. It ended in a Stalemate at first but eventually the Allies broke through and won.
- They're haunting my dreams
They're still...:
Sabaton’s official background notes that the music video imagines Murphy during the week he isolated himself in a hotel with a loaded gun while struggling with PTSD and addiction after the war.

I would put death with a capital - it would make more sense when translated into Dutch to make Death personalised as the Grim Reaper. Even official lyrics can contain spelling errors . . .
