You're off over the mountains
To a country yet unknown
It comes spilling in thousands
And none of you are prone
They say you've got to toughen up
They say you need to serve bravely
Hopefully it'll be enough
And you pray that it will be
Now you just stand there
Looking at the surroundings
The sights, you cannot bear
Fly to the runway and your landing
You step outside your jet
Swearing you'll go home in one piece
But you don't know if you will yet
"Just go home alive, at least"
Breaking bones
Tearing through fields
Why'd you leave home?
It doesn't feel real
Suddenly you fall and your bloody mouth starts to foam
Fading to blackness
You whisper a quick "I love you" to your wife and kids back home
"War did this"
