|
Here I am |
|
In the desert again |
|
A compass and a weapon |
|
A lost American |
|
I started out with a simple plan |
|
And a locket in my hand |
|
But the sun so unforgiving |
|
And the wind so hard to stand |
|
Fall out, fall out |
|
With the rest of your brothers |
|
With the rest of your sisters |
|
Heroes on the line |
|
Carry out what your leader says |
|
For what his leader says |
|
Is that his leader says |
|
This is right for the people |
|
No one will ever understand why |
|
Thousands of beautiful, healthy, |
|
Young statues must fall |
|
Smoke and explosions surround me |
|
A flood of hate, it drowns me |
|
I cannot live this way |
|
No I cannot live |
|
Doubt and confusion |
|
They find me |
|
They run up right behind me |
|
I cannot die this way |
|
No, I cannot die this way |
|
In the water, in the sand |
|
Is the blood of a culture |
|
Is the blood of an ancient people |
|
In whose holy war I stand |
|
I hear the world like a cannon roar |
|
Say I can't win this war |
|
I promise them this is |
|
Not what I signed up for |
|
No one will ever understand why |
|
Thousands of beautiful, healthy, |
|
Young statues must fall |
|
Smoke and explosions surround me |
|
A flood of hate, it drowns me |
|
I cannot live this way |
|
No, I cannot live |
|
Doubt and confusion |
|
They find me |
|
They run up right behind me |
|
I cannot die this way |
|
No, I cannot die this way |
|
No one will ever understand why |
|
Thousands of beautiful, healthy, |
|
Young soldiers must fall |
|
Smoke and explosions surround me |
|
A flood of hate, it drowns me |
|
I cannot live this way |
|
I cannot live |
|
With your doubt and confusion |
|
They find me |
|
They run up right behind me |
|
I cannot die this way |
|
No, I will not die this way |
