I tried...comments? ----------------------------------------------------------- You walk all alone and you listen to no-one as you roam You're shivering and it's below freezing on the inside Funny. Just a few moments ago you were burning up Well, you're alone and you get to thinking, staring at that last sip of vodka at the bottom of your cup What's keeping you here? Go ahead, touch the sun, kissing the horizon Just don't burn yourself when you cross the line C'mon kid, you'll be fine. Just don't forget to bring your guns Now you're in the middle of 'No-mans-land' Who knows the way out of this fix? Of all the fame and glory they've promised But the stench burns your face, and it makes you feel sick You know that feeling you get when you're ready to regurgitate every little bit of your insides The way you know the world's gonna see everything you've kept from it and there's no safe place to hide That's it. You've done it. You came back with every finger with the exception of your right index finger and thumb That's what happens when you try to do death's job better You just try too hard for some teenaged boy with a gun Oh well, you're better off here anyway Reading papers on how the front row has a better view on the slaughter Why would you want to go back anyway? You're about to become a father telling stories even the wise could not tell Of a war in which every man could not fight to live but had to live to fight for himself
Go ahead, touch the sun, kissing the horizon Just don't burn yourself when you cross the line C'mon kid, you'll be fine. Just don't forget to bring your guns Great stuff
