POV Alec

It's three a.m., I'm lying awake in our bed

Thinking about all the things done and said

For all the time I can make you smile

Even while they say we're vile.

And all the blood that flows

With every hit and blow.

We are children and we are soldiers

We are free and yet we are prisoners.

And can they really say they're ready,

When the guns they hold aren't steady?

They're breaking our young hearts

Watching our homes fall apart.

Tell me good Lord, will this war last forever?

Will I ever need to bury my lover?

Tell me never, never, ever.

And all their voices echo in my head

Telling me to run before I'm dead

And I think to myself:

Am I the only one who feels this way

And you say to me:

You're not the only one who feels this way.
