Painfully lost in the field
Pouring hearts to see purple
Profound loneliness when surrounded
Pinned to standards I can't live without

Torn between two lifestyles
Tear me down, see me as normal
Totalitarian emotions
There's no freedom at home

Save me from myself
Save my family from their trauma
Sleep lightly, the fear follows you into night
Stranger to the front, cry for the family

Defy death and come home
Deny thanks, stay humble
Death is what you bring, death is what I fear
Dedicate your life to protecting ours
