Dawn See's Everything
Dusk to Dawn the battle goes on, ,
Wars have gone on in rage for centuries.
Fighting off fatigue, suffering & disease
When at War all that's adverse is the enemy;
No heroes coming home, the only heroes that our
known, their corpses are going home in a body bag.
On this battlefield good men died, at home
women cried and wondered what went wrong.
With courage in our hearts and never quit for a song
We fought hard and at times fought very long.
Stuck in this hole face to face with the enemy
fighting with all that's, left inside me.
I'll be damned if I'm not going home this time around.
On these killing field's we dwell, Stuck in this playground known as Hell, it's not our choice, this isn't
where we want to be.
Come morning well be gone, as the battle rages on
By dawn, we'll have seen everything...
