Survival (2022 Re-Master) Lyrics

I went to war and I survived

All around me friends fell and died

I could do nothing inside I cried

But fight on to victory for the righteous side

Battles won battles lost

There are no benefits just costs

Defeat the enemy make him run

And ride into the sun

Sleep without sleeping in fear again

Hoping the nightmare will soon end

Running blindly forward into the fire

Being stopped short by miles and miles of wire

Time means nothing the seasons have stopped changing

The only constant is the endless raining

Of water of steel of mud of blood

Will anything ever stop this raging flood

I went to war and I survived

Returning home to fucking hot dogs and pie

But thinking of friends now up in the sky

Makes me question the reasons why

Why did millions fight and die

Wasn't god watching with one eye

Is he so lonely up there in the sky

How could he let millions of people die

I went to war and I survived

My personal struggle remains locked inside

Nothing can explain the fright

That everyone felt each day and each night

The flag flies alone in the wind

At half-mast for our friends
