theory of a deadman
we were men
Woke up screaming in bed The silence taunts me It's like I am there again  But this nightmare calms me down The fire licks 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 haunt me My faith is hard 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 me 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 Though they do what they're told You send them to war But they never go home You feel on their bones  They fought through their veins  We cry for their souls That just can't take   We live to fight another day And serve our country without dismay For those who take us from our homes May God have mercy on their souls  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  [Repeat: x3] We were men
