|
I'm under fire blood red sky |
|
Underneath the war machine |
|
Fight for what's right don't ask why |
|
Just make the sacrifice |
|
Desensitized but my eyes |
|
Still recognize the pain |
|
Truth stark and real fight or die |
|
Retreat has no place in this game |
|
In the dark and under fire |
|
Believing our cause was justified |
|
Caught in the crosshairs condition dire |
|
Trying a case of do or die |
|
In the blink of an eye |
|
I took someone's life |
|
It's no wonder why |
|
I'm hunted by it still |
|
Bright Flickering light snubbed by my numbing hands |
|
Don't understand |
|
One finger slip and it's over for him |
|
All's fair in war so they say |
|
But later as |
|
I try to sleep |
|
I just can't help but replay |
|
When I sat in as deity |
|
Was this man a loving father? |
|
Was this man a loving son? |
|
Though it was one of us or the other |
|
I don't feel like a lucky one |
|
In the blink of an eye |
|
I took someone's life |
|
It's no wonder why |
|
I'm hunted every night |
|
I still hear his cries |
|
And think about his wife and his kids |
|
And all that he could have been |
|
If only we'd have been friends |
|
In a blink of an eye: |
