Fallen dust

Turns into sand

A pool of blood

Where there once stood a man

And all I can think

All I can breath

Is the gun in my hand

And the wounds far too deep

The bottle won't cure

Emptiness I see

Reality is inconceivable to me

Lights go out

And angel's wings

Fly on solider

Never be free

But I will fight on

Like the soldier I am

I will go on

To kill another man

And never forget

A blank stare

Another salute

Learning not to care

I will go on

And burn this city down

Fire at will

Another dream

Lost at sea

You were to kind

For the life that we lead

You knew something

Hard and deep

Lost too early

They miss you

Nobody'd miss me

The bottle won't cure

Emptiness I see

Reality is inconceivable to me

Lights go out

And angel's wings

Fly on solider

Never be free

But I will fight on

Like the soldier I am

I will go on

To kill another man

And never forget

A blank stare

Another salute

Learning not to care

I will go on

And burn this city down

Fire at will

You remind me

Of all the things

That I was

But you have tampered with fate

Innocence far too gone

Slowly crushed

By the hands of god

That we won't believe in

A lie that lives on

You saw the door

Never be free

Reality is inconceivable to me

Another light

I don't know how you see

But keep hoping

For me

So I will fight on

Like the soldier I am

I will go on

To kill another man

And never forget

A blank stare

Another salute

Learning not to care

I will go on

And burn this city down

Fire at will

So don't leave now

Ashes behind

An empty stare

As I turn out the lights

You know now

What you have left behind

But we will keep fighting

Till' the day we die
