Staring at the carnage,
Praying that the sun would never rise,
Livin' in another day in disguise,
These feelings can't be right
Lend me your courage to stand up and fight,
on tonight...
ooo oooooo
Stand up and fight...
The fighting rages on and on!
To challenge me you must be strong
I walk your land but dont belong
2 million soldiers can't wrong,
It's no fun but I've been here before,
I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war,
(Not the way I pictured I wanted better things)
Some are scared others killing for fun,
I shot a mother right in front of her son,
(Take this from my conscienceness and please erase my dreams)
Fight for honor, fight for you life,
Pray to God that our side is right,
Although we won I still may lose,
Until I make it home to you,
I see our mothers filled with tears,
Grew up so fast where did those years go,
Memories won't let you cry,
Unless I don't return tonight
So many soldiers on the other side,
I take their lives so they can't take mine,
(Scared to make it out alive now, murders all I know)
Nobody tells me all the reasons we're here,
I have my 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,
Although we won I still may lose,
Until I make it home to you,
I see our mothers filled with tears,
Grew up so fast where did those years go,
Memories won't let you cry,
Unless I don't return tonight
Staring at the carnage,
Praying that the sun would never rise,
Living another day in disguise,
These feelings can't be right,
Lend me your courage to stand up and fight,
Watchin' the death toll rise,
Wonderin' how I'm alive,
(Stranger's blood on my hands, shot all I can)
There are no silent nights,
Watchin' your brothers all die,
To destroy all their plans with no thought of me,
No thought of me,
(No thought of me)
[solo]
Walk the city lonely,
Memories that haunt are passing by,
A murderer walks your streets tonight,
Forgive me for my crimes,
Don't forget I was so young
Fought so scared,
In the name of God and country...
