Memories that haunt are passing by
Forgive me for my crimes
These feelings can't be right
These feelings can't be right
Unless I don't return tonight
Know we won, I still may lose
Lend me your courage to stand up and fight on tonight
Living another day in disguise
Fight for honor, fight for your life
I see our mothers filled with tears
Until I make it home to you
Don't forget that I was so young
Grew up so fast, where did those years go?
Fight for honor, fight for your life
Wondering how I'm alive
Watching your brothers all die
I have my weapon, so there's nothing to fear
Murder's all I know
I take their lives so they can't take mine
Watching the death toll rise
A murderer walks your streets tonight
Until I make it home to you
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war
Living another day in disguise
Memories won't let you cry
I wanted better things
Some are scared, others killing for fun
Two million soldiers can't be wrong
Take this from my consciousness
Praying that the sun would never rise
Grew up so fast, where did those years go?
I shot a mother right in front of her son
Stranger's blood on my hands, shot all I can
Walk the city lonely
Now fighting rages on and on
Stand up and fight
And please erase my dreams
There were no silent nights
Pray to God that our side is right
Know we won, I still may lose
Nobody tells me all the reasons we're here
Another day, another life
So many soldiers on the other side
Lend me your courage, stand up and fight
Not the way I pictured this
Pray to God that our side is right
Memories won't let you cry
I see our mothers filled with tears
No thought of me, no thought of me
Staring at the carnage
But nothing real to show for
To challenge me, you must be strong
It's no fun but I've been here before
To destroy all their plans with no thought of me
Scared to make it out alive now
Unless I don't return tonight
I walk your land but don't belong
