M.I.A.

Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise Living another day in disguise These feelings can't be right Lend me your courage to stand up and fight, on tonight Stand up and fight Now fighting rages on and on To challenge me you must be strong I'll walk your land but don't be long Two million soldiers can't be wrong Its no fun but I've been here before I'm far from home and I'm fighting your war (Not the way I pictured this, I wanted better things) Some are scared others killing for fun, I shot a mother in front of her son (Change this from my consciousness and please erase my dreams) Fight for honor, fight for your life Pray to god that our side is right You know we won but still we lose, until I make it home to you I see your mother filled with tears we grew up so fast where did those years go Memories won't let you cry unless I don't return tonight So many soldiers on the other side, I take their live so they don't take mine (Scared to make it out alive now murders all I know) Nobody tells me all the reasons were here, I am a weapon so there's nothing to fear (Another day another life but nothing real to show for) Fight for honor, fight for your life Pray to god that our side is right You know we won but still we lose, until I make it home to you I see your mother filled with tears we grew up so fast where did those years go Memories won't let you cry unless I don't return tonight Staring at the carnage, praying that the sun will never rise Living another day in disguise These feelings can't be right, lend me your courage to stand up and fight Watching the death toll rise wondering how I'm alive Strangers blood on my hands, shot all I can There were no silent nights watching your brothers all die To destroy all their plans with no thought of me (no thought of me) No thought of me Walk the city lonely Memories that haunt are passing by A murderer walks your street tonight Forgive me for my crimes, don't forget that I was so young Fought so scared in the name of God and country --- M.I.A. - Avenged Sevenfold
