Taring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings can't be right, lend me your courage to stand
up and fight, on tonight.
Oh
Stand up and fight.
Now fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be
strong.
I'll walk your land but don't be long, two million soldiers can't
be wrong.
Its no fun but I've been here before.
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war.
(Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things)
Some are scared others killing for fun, I shot a mother in front
of her son.
(Change this from my consciousness and please erase my
dreams)
Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose, until I make it home to
you.
I see your mother filled with tears we grew up so fast where
did those years go.
Memories that haunt are passing by won't let you cry unless I
don't return tonight.
So many soldiers on the other side, I take their live so they
don't take mine.
(Scared to make it out alive now murders all I know.)
Nobody tells me all the reasons were here, I am a weapon so
there's nothing to fear.
(Another day another life but nothing real to show for.)
Fight for honor, fight for your life.
Pray to god that our side is right.
You know we won but still we lose, until I make it home to
you.
I see your mother filled with tears we grew up so fast where
did those years go.
Memories that haunt are passing by won't let you cry unless I
don't return tonight.
Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise.
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings can't be right, lend me your courage to stand
up and fight.
Watching the death toll rise wondering how I'm alive.
Strangers blood on my hands, shot all I can.
There were no silent nights watching your brothers all die
To destroy all their plans with no thought of me. (No thought
of me)
No thought of me.
Oh
Walk the city lonely
Memories that haunt are passing by
A murderer walks your street tonight
Forgive me for my crimes; don't forget that I was so young
Fought so scared in the name of God and country
Living another day in disguise.
These feelings can't be right, lend me your courage to stand
up and fight, on tonight.
Oh
Stand up and fight.
Now fighting rages on and on, to challenge me you must be
strong.
I'll walk your land but don't be long, two million soldiers can't
be wrong.
