Leaving all behind

D#m
This inferno turned me blind
There was fire and smoke all around
B
Dead bodies and blood everywhere
A# D#m
In this unholy ground
D#m
Now the future is no more
We're all lost to this vicious whore

We went out to fight for glory

Only one of us came home

D#m C#
I sit here on my porch
F#
As an old and lonely man
A#
Sometimes I recall

When terror struck the land

Was it right to go to arms
F#
To defend the freedom rights
A# D#m
I am sure or else I've lived upon a lie
