I've been gone gone gone And I'm a long long way from home Out here on my own Just a soldier flesh and bone Bone... Today I watched my buddy die And it tore a hole inside my soul I've been down down down It's the only way I know Scattered pieces all around me on the ground Yeah and I'm still scared as hell to hear the sound In this fucked up war we fight It seems there ain't no end in sight And when I found my buddy's rifle I had to pry it from his cold dead hands Now I'm on my knees Beggin' lord come help me please 'Cause I hurt in every way I can't stop the pain or erase the day And I've been down down down down down A long and lonesome road Road... And I walk this road alone 'Cause it's the only road I know Scattered pieces all around me on the ground Yeah and I'm still scared as hell to hear the sound In this fucked up war we fight It seems there ain't no end in sight And when I found my buddy's rifle I had to pry it from his cold dead hands Scattered pieces all around me on the ground Yeah and I'm still scared as hell to hear the sound In this fucked up war we fight It seems there ain't no end in sight And when I found my buddy's rifle I had to pry it from his cold dead hands
