Shell Shock

Benedictum

Now my backs against the wall,
 I’ve had all I can take
 My emotions deep inside like a dam will break
 I need to breathe, someone to watch over me
 Life is on the line and there’s no time

 I’m living the war not like you
 Rolling thunder passing through
 I need a way to conquer the pain
 Cuz I’ve heard the bombs and I felt the heat of the flame

 Shell Shock
 We fight we die, Shell shock
 We don’t ask why, Shell shock
 We fight we die, Shell shock
 Be it truth or lie! Shell shock

 No one seems to understand all
 that we go through
 But the enemy is marching forward
 survivals what I do
 And I need to breathe,
 someone to watch over me
 Life is on the line that life is mine 

 I’m living the war not like you
 Rolling thunder passing through
 Will you help me conquer the pain?
 Cuz I’ve heard the bombs
 and I felt the heat of the flame

 Shell Shock
 We fight we die, Shell shock
 We don’t ask why, Shell shock
 We fight we die, Shell shock
 Be it truth or lie! Shell shock

 They say it’s wrong, they say it’s right
 I am just fighting the fight
 Try not to die everyday
 But I know what I’m fighting for 

 This mighty nation sent me
 here my duty to obey
 When I come home after war
 what will this nation say?
 You need to keep the promises
 you made to me
 Honor on the line all the time! 

 I’m living the war not like you
 Rolling thunder passing through
 Will you help me conquer the pain?
 Cuz I’ve heard the bombs
 and I felt the heat of the flame
