Woke up screaming in bed The silence toss me Is like I'm But this nightmare calms me down The fire leaks my skin I feel it burn away Pulling stream overhead My heart beats deafening I've never been so afraid But we were men We walk the front lines We defend our country with our lives We pretend to see truth in all these lies Cause in the end we were men I close my eyes to hide their faces haunting My faith is all to find Your picture calms me down I can't cope with the pain These pills don't work They just leave me the same I feel so weak today You made my strong So why did you take it away? I'm trapped inside the afraid But we were men We walk the front lines We defend our country with our lives We pretend to see truth in all these lies Cause in the end we were Soldiers don't feel They do what they're told They send them to war They never go home The fear in their bones Live through the days We pray for the souls That God can't save We live to fight another day And serve our country without But we were men We walk the front lines We defend our country with our lives We pretend to see truth in all these lies Cause in the end we were men We were men x4
