The war is over and I've won
But at what cost?
My wounds are open and I'm bleeding
Look at what I've lost
Eyes closed like I'm ready to die
I'm waiting for a sign
My friends are dead with bullets in their heads
Victory is mine
I don't wanna fight your war anymore
I wanna go back to peace
I don't wanna fight your war anymore
Leave me out of this
So much pain in this game of war
We're all dying, can't stop the crying
What are we fighting for?
Captain said everybody was dead
And it's all my fault
Tried to say it wasn't me
I'm lost and cold
The captain did it and found me to blame
Now what can I do?
you wouldn't try to shoot me now
If you knew the truth
Simple isn't it folks :)
