Don't know the reason why I'm here
Or why's that gun here in my hand
Did I survive 'cause they tell us to?
Or to see your face if I can get through?
In times of peace you dried my tears
These days I'd give so much to feel
Even a bit of sadness here in me
To wake the man sleeping in the beast
Here I go
Play my part:
Seek and kill and then run
Nothing but
Flesh and bones
And corpses all around
All of my days just look the same
As I go shooting men from behind without shame
I hear your voice like an angel's cry reaching hell
Would you recognize me, the child pulling your dress?
Would you still love me, if I told you how much I killed?
Would you still teach me what life is?
Would you take me back to where we left?
Want to escape
(No, you must stay!)
Maybe you'll see another day
I'll get away
(You'll go nowhere!)
It's all so hellish because
All of my dreams are just the same
I see all of my victims and
I go insane, still I've made it, I'm here and I'm alive
You taught me love 'n I'm a killer, you wouldn't be proud
You'd tell me off if you knew it
I am a soldier, but still your son.
Here I go
Play my part:
Seek and kill and then run
Nothing but
Skin and bones
And corpses all around
Take me Home!
Shoot me down!
Get me out of this mess!
No you won't
Go back home
Until war is over!
Now
I'm in the game
I'll have to play
But I will see you once again
While I'm away
Don't you forget
What I was once: the child pulling your dress
Will you still love me if I tell you about all the mess?
Will you still teach me what Life is?
Please take me back to where I belong
