[Intro – Acoustic Guitar, no lyrics] [Intro] (Acoustic guitar) [Verse 1] Hot sand in my boots, sun is burning my skin Another long march,we're all thirsty again The air tastes like dust, every breath feels thin Courage comes thru as the battles begin [Verse 2] Night falls but it don’t bring peace to me I Still hear the noise,Nightmares and wrestless sleep I write when I can but I’ll spare you the details Some things stay buried,some things i don't need you to worry about,there's enough as it is [Pre-Chorus 1] I keep your picture folded in my hand your the only thing that helps the days go past [Chorus] I lost another friend this week Im sure ill take home with me I can’t wait to get back to you My body's getting weak and my minds not far behind Feeling battered and torn Another day is gone.. [Verse 3] We move like ghosts through this foreign land Every face I pass,it looks like the last Orders come down, we move again Not sure what day it is,as time keeps slipping past [Verse 4] I talked to God again but I don’t hear a sound Just the weight of the violence weighing me down If I make it out of here, will I be the same? Or just a memory still wearing my name [Pre-Chorus 2] I read your last letter once Again The closest thing to home any of us have [Chorus] I lost another friend this week Oh my brother go rest in peace I can’t wait to get back home to you I Wish the same for their families too I'm battered and torn.. One more day is gone [Break away guitar solo-80s metal,powerful,shredding,melodic scales) [Outro fades] [Outro falsetto] Pieces of me keep slipping away.. Oh my family.. Oh my friends.. I Hope to see you again..
