Patrol today, battle at night

Getting to tired to fight

Piece by piece my spirit drains

Blood from my friends leaves a stain

Sadness and pain of empty faces

Watching us from different places

Is the enemy hiding is dark places?

Piece by Piece the innocent rebuild

So many innocent people and soldiers killed

How do they find happiness amongst destruction?

Children play in the streets

Such a simple culture that continues to survive

It takes so much to stay alive

Piece by Piece broken spirits return

So many simple things I have learned

Patrol today, thank god no battle tonight

Pieces of me are over the fight.

No more battles, no more death

So many buddies turned to ****

Bodies and Spirits destroyed from that life

Going home and pick up the pieces with his my wife

Pieces by Piece my pain goes away

With the rise of the sun, begins a new day
