I walk across the sea of flames Against the firing line Being told they're The ones to blame We invade, we destroy Innocence tattered and torn They run in terror We scorch their earth
Dead bodies, stacked ten feet high I can still see them before my eyes Men, Women and children Their life drained from their eyes We were all sent there to die The memories still haunt me
There's a problem in the world today
I pushed you all away So I could hide my pain The constant torment of never ending flashbacks Fear behind a smiling mask, I hate what I see in reflective glass Hell above and below I never intended to hurt those I love In the same way I hurt those I was taught to hate And, oh god, the lines become more blurred every day (Voices talking) Voices in my head) Ringing in my ears Blood and sand in my eyes Across the desert lies A plain white flag Held in a little boy's hands He never stood a chance
So stop screaming my name We're not the ones to blame We're all just pawns to their game Another face with no name "Dying in his name" So stop screaming my name Stop screaming my name It won't do a thing I have stared death in the face And spoke words so strange I bear my cross with disdain Bearing the souls of the slain
I gave up all that I own My love, my family, my home But what I regret the most Is giving up hope Lay me down, descend me to the darkness Pray for me, for I have lost salvation I suppress my memories with poisons Replace my life with the little boy's I should have saved Disassemble. Rearrange. praise me for my accolades But when I cry for help, all you do is talk of shame Though my tour is ended the sound continues And the sound of war is endless
Now I'm drowning in a bottle of substance Waking in the middle of the night Screaming to memories I can still hear them screaming The blade feels so cold Pressed against my skin I am the one that never grows old (we are the ones that never grow old) Remember me for me, not my end
Do you know what its like when your gun jams And you're standing face to face With a man who wants to die for his country Who wants to die for his beliefs He raises his gun And fires away God abandoned me? God abandoned us all I walk across the sea of flamesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
