For fear of an atmosphere poisoned deceased
I pray for my home but still sit here in hell
Go to the grind it's all that I have
But a graying face in this dying place
I pray for my home but still sit here in hell
To my ancestors battles and wars through the years
I think of a place on a faraway coast
To a place they call sacred a place I call hell
Sail away to a place that's unknown
Taken away from my friends and my home
Taken away from my friends and my home
Here in the trenches the fist of the beast
A cloudy dark images of a middle east land
Work on and on with nothing to show
But the duty I serve can't begin to compare
Though the loneliness strikes like an enemy shell
It's American soil I hope for at best
Sail away to a place that's unknown
But the duty I serve can't begin to compare
To a place they call sacred a place I call hell
Taken away from my friends and my home
Comes down and wrecks my hopeful thought
I long for that corner I once knew so well
To a place they call sacred a place I call hell
I long for that corner I once knew so well
With a gas mask to keep me-from breathing my death
Where friends are so dear and there's reason to toast
Though the loneliness strikes like an enemy shell
It's American soil I hope for at best
To my ancestors battles and wars through the years
Thats a lock in my solitude
With a gas mask to keep me-from breathing my death
Sail away to a place that's unknown
