I'm coming home
But not unaffected
This battle
Is still going on
Can't stop the flashbacks of war
My brother is lying in a pool of blood
Explosions all around
Help him
Survive
I'm thinking of my loved ones
Back Home
Their torn photos are in my wallet
Getting their letters
Helps me get through the day
But I can't sleep
Wandering what tomorrow will bring
What innocent lives will be lost
For the cause
But I'm standing strong
I'm coming home
