[Verse 1] [Soft, slow melody, deep male vocal, slight static in background] "Woke up to silence, but the guns still roar, Shadows in the hallway, footprints on the floor. City lights flicker, but I see the flares, Sirens in the distance, though there’s nothing there." "Hands still shake when I reach for the light, See their faces in the dead of night. This ain't home—just another post, Still taking orders from forgotten ghosts." [Chorus] [Ethereal, melancholic echoes, deep bass pulses] "I fought, I bled, I came back home,_ _But the war won't leave me alone." "I see spies where the strangers stand, Smoke in the air where there’s only sand." "I fought, I bled, I laid down my gun,_ _But the battle's never done." [Verse 2] [Soft guitar strumming, slow drumbeat starts, voice heavy with weariness] "Neighbors stare like I don’t belong, Cross the street when I walk along. They see the scars but not the fight, I still take cover at flickering lights." "The static whispers in my ear, Calling names that ain’t been here. I turn my head, the ghosts just grin, The war outside is now within." [Chorus] [Same as before, but more layered vocals, feeling heavier] "I fought, I bled, I came back home,_ _But the war won't leave me alone." "I see spies where the strangers stand, Smoke in the air where there’s only sand." "I fought, I bled, I laid down my gun,_ _But the battle's never done." [Bridge] [Sudden quiet, soft heartbeat-like pulse, fading echoes] "They call me a hero… But I just feel lost." "They say it's over… Then why does it haunt?" [Chorus] [Instrumental builds, heavy reverb, layered harmonies] "I fought, I bled, I came back home,_ _But the war won't leave me alone." "I see spies where the strangers stand, Smoke in the air where there’s only sand." "I fought, I bled, I laid down my gun,_ _But the battle's never done." [Outro] [Soft piano, last echoes fade into silence] "I close my eyes, the war still calls… I left the fight, but never left at all."
