Hard times coming home now, can’t get your feet on the ground |
| [00:09.910] |
Got some issues, and no one wants you around |
| [00:14.980] |
Barely sleeping and you can’t get through to the VA on the phone |
| [00:21.250] |
No one’s hiring, and no one wants to give you a loan |
| [00:27.200] |
And everyone else is carrying on just like they’ve always done before |
| [00:33.060] |
You’ve been home for a coupla years now buddy but you’re |
| [00:37.220] |
Still fighting the war |
| [00:44.400] |
Flashback to Fallujah, lost another best friend |
| [00:50.220] |
Three tours of duty and you wonder when it’s all gonna end |
| [00:55.930] |
Body’s broken and bone shattered, blood and dust in your mouth |
| [01:02.190] |
Gettin’ weary but you’re running with the few and the proud |
| [01:08.030] |
Sometimes you wonder why you went, You never wonder what you stayed on for |
| [01:13.550] |
You’ve been home for a coupla years now buddy but you’re |
| [01:17.720] |
Still fighting the war |
| [01:21.390] |
Men go off to war for a hundred reasons |
| [01:26.600] |
But they all come home with the same demons |
| [01:33.230] |
Some you can keep at bay for a while |
| [01:36.980] |
And some will pin you to the floor |
| [01:39.800] |
You’ve been home for a coupla years now buddy but you’re |
| [01:43.360] |
Still fighting the war |
| [01:49.010] |
The bedspread is fraying, faded and tearing apart |
| [01:56.220] |
Two strangers, holding each other in the dark |
| [02:02.280] |
Tell me what were you dreaming, How did you think it would end? |
| [02:08.350] |
How many heroes are scattered out into the wind? |
| [02:14.080] |
And all the happily ever afters turn to broken dishes and slamming doors |
| [02:20.940] |
You’ve been home for a coupla years now buddy but you’re |
| [02:26.150] |
Still fighting the war |
| [02:31.840] |
