Bloodshed

Tell me to stand up tell me to lie down in the sand
I’ll do anything decide to take or leave me
You and I both know now that this war will never end
there’s nothing left for us to think or say
I am not the one to make this world a better place
so you might as well take this poor life away
Tear my heart to pieces I won’t cheat on you my friend
I’ve been here for much too long anyway

There are no bad intents come on and aim at me
my friend
I did live long enough to see the beauty
Penetrate my brain onto the wall behind my back
spill my guts no one will call it cruelty
Don’t you feel afraid now to shed blood in foreign land
it’s only mine you came here to defeat me
Please blow me away with that gun you hold
in your hand
shoot so I can leave this world behind me.
