I dreamed of freedom, desires of mine
Wicked men, my government
You gave birth to a monster
You promised me heaven
Took me to the gates of hell
I can’t sleep when the sun comes down
If I could start all over
Would you remember me when I fade away
Peaces of a broken heart
Words of a fallen soldier
Tell my wife how much I love her
Tell my daughter I miss her
The clock goes on and on
I’m a desert town on a foreign ground
Hurting souls are everywhere
The child has grown now
Innocence gone now
Thinking of my sweet home
Merry face of my woman
Tomorrow I’ll be back on the frontline
I still don’t know what I’m fighting for
I’m still here today, I know by tomorrow I’m gone
Who’s got the right to take these lives away
Dead people all around me Weapons of mass destruction turned myself into a serial killer
Wish I’ve never been that man in the mirror
No mercy when the gunshots blow
Many men down, when it rains it pours
I shed blood, shot by an AK 47
It’s a long way to heaven, there’s no winner
For every man down there’s a widow
Find no light in a darkened soul
Nothing can erase that pain Lord, nothing can erase that pain
I came back like I promised fifty stars on my coffin
I paid my dues and I prayed God often
On my way to paradise
