lyrics

Fresh green brushes up against my tense legs
Silent stares come from the man with no name
Why are we hear, can you feel my heart beat
Will I be forgotten amongst these hopeless faces

Wash my hands from the lives I will take
Breath into me the life I might lose
Whisper to me the choice I could have
And tell me how much you will miss me when I am lost

Break me down in front of my friends
Look away so you won’t see my tears
I am the only one who feels doubt beneath my skin
I have no choice but to fight oohhh, for my own sake

The War…The War…..The War ooohhhh
(The War is upon us now)
The War…The War….The War ooohhhhh
(The War is upon us now)

And tell me how much you will miss me when I am lost
