Disarmed in physical estate
Alarmed by visual mandate
In disarray without a fate
For my redemption it's to late
Disarmed, alarmed in disarray
Today the Taliban's my pray
My place in life I cast aside
And paint my walls in black and white
My feelings I keep locked away
And when I'll see God, I will pay
'Till then, I'll stay here and
I'll fight and give in to countries plight
And in this fight
I stand with pride
Despite opinions
On wrong and right
And what I ask
Is not a lot
Just little food
And place at night
I do not ask to understand
And i don't want you to relate
And if I could just close this door
I would... 'Cause war's an ugly whore
Decision's made
My weapon's loaded
The sights are locked
And I keep innocence blindfolded
I understand
When you object
But please don't hide
And be direct
I understand
Your disapproval
But please with patience comprehend
I'm just a tool for threats removal
I don't decide What's wrong or right
My role...
It's tiny in it's right
I sweat
I bleed
I she a tear
But in my work, I show no fear
That's not to say
That I have none
I'm only human
I've had my fun
If i could show u all the pain I endured
... I wouldn't
If I could make u understand what I've been thru
... I could't
If u been where I have been
... you wouldn't
Act the way you act
... You couldn't
But life goes on
I carry on
With heavy heart
And broken soul
My life simple now
It's black and white
And yet some thing's amiss
I dont feel right
Like part of me
Is thorn away
Like all i need is here
And yet so far away
And like a tiger at the zoo
I'll never be free
And i did my best to fake it
But I'll never feel free
So I stay up at night
Lost in side my fight
Im scared to close my wicked eyes
Because the dreams arent so nice
And only remeberence of death
Stays scared into this face
And it's that painful knowing
That to this day keeps me going
It thore out my heart,
It shred it apart.
I lost all my faith...
I even lost trust.
I miss all friends,
I miss all thouse times
When happiness strived,
When I felt so free.
Now even when home
I cant get away
From all of that haze
And mud on face.
I live with my guilt
My filthy old hands
Are covered in blood
And scars cover heart.
How do you explain
The war to some one?
How can u tell
The loved ones your done?
So dead on the inside,
So thorn and so gone,
So tired of pain,
So sick of regrets.
How do you explain
The death someone?
How do you reclaim
Your heart that's far gone?
Pretend to be strong...
While dieing inside.
And being so tough...
While feeling so gone.
Pretending to laugh...
While crying inside.
Pretendin to be
What they wonna see.
So broken inside
Life thor me apart
The answer I know
Is not always right
But I smile outside
Pretend it's alright
Ignoring the pain
Not asking for fame
Thrue this life go
Inside I feel lame
'Cause I'll carry on
And and in to the sin
I watch my self fall
At the end of this turn
It's so very grey
But I connot stop
I cannot give up
I have to stand up
And carry this flag
The flag that I love
The flag that I have
The flag on my door
The flag in my heart
