Tonight I killed a boy
He raised his gun and shot
Never lived another day
Two days before him, he was my comrade
In the forests a dying oath
Just to save my own

Save me from this war,
Bleed me, Cut me, Save me,
All men fall,
Wars are fought between lonely man
End my pain, Just pull the plug
This wasn't my fight

One by One, my men fell
Before the sun could rise,
I was fighting for my life

"I respect those who defend their homeland
I pay homage to the dead
Their families turn their heads and shake
All alone you brought this guilt on me,
I can't take it anymore, call me a coward"

At home families wait for loved ones to return
But how can i tell them their son isn't alive?
Daunting eyes and cold backs
They await me at home
Their eyes turned away from the world
They are the last to see the hell we went through
And the last ones to feel pain

The ultimate high is for men to die,
A ruler´s tool, priest´s excuse, tyrant´s delight...
Just another method for containing power
All for personal wealth and satisfaction

Deliver me from this war,
I obey to ****, I **** to survive
Devils Damnation because of you
It's not for me, It's all for you
When do you think of others?
I suffer because of you
Inside you think I am ok?
Devils eternity because of you
Please Deliver me from this war.
