John's nightmares came back following the events at Barts that fateful day. He still heard the guns and the men shouting, but it was always Sherlock's face he saw on the dying men. Would they stop forever when John finally got closure, or was the start of a new nightmare for Dr John Hamish Watson?
Army Nightmares - based on Kate Bush's excellent Army Dreaming

"B.A.M.F." "Sherlock's hero"
John Watson army boy
Who's coming home from death's dark zero?
He's got a bunch of lame excuses
To placate his friend, his only hero
Mourning since Barts Hospital
It's been two years and John needs closure
Sherlock is in cocksure form
To carry home John Watson, soldier
"What could he do?
Should have been a teacher"
But it really wasn't in his nature
"What could he do?
Should have been a politician"
But he never wanted Mycroft's competition
"What could he do?
Should have been a better brother"
But their petty feud always upset Mummy
And, now John has - Army nightmares
Ooh, sleepless nights of Army nightmares
Tears o'er empty grave
Oh, Sherlock Holmes, he wasn't to know
How John needs to get a shave
He can't now win back friends with ego
Give Lestrade the shock of shocks
And give him a perfect end - surprise!
Now he's sitting at his desk
He might as well have fiction and lies
"What could he do?
He could jump out of a cake!"
But he still has to explain his death faked
"What could he do?
Should have stopped his combat mission"
But he had to save his friend, physician
"What could he do?
Should have asked his brother"
But he needed to first kill all of the villains
All for John - Army nightmares
Ooh, now John Watson has Army nightmare
Ooh, what a waste of John's life
Army nightmares
Army nightmares
Army nightmares, oh
