Gun to my head
Pulled the trigger
Misfire
Failure
With old friends
Misfire
Pills don’t work
Therapy’s a joke
More misfires
No one comes to visit
They say I’m crazy
“Oh, he went to war”
What’s wrong?
Can’t talk, can’t listen,
Explosions in my head
Bullets rake
Nighttime shakes
Mind confusion
What’s wrong?
I need another song
No one can help
In Afghanistan
Restless hours awake
At home no escape
Wife’s cheatin with a
friend who used to be...
the life I had is gone
I ain’t no longer me
Angry, out of control
“Damage vet” they say
I can’t get rid of faces of
Fated buddies who’ll
Never come home
Shadows of men I killed
Husbands, fathers, brothers
Marching through my head
If I was wasted over there
Honor and a 21 gun salute
Would have been mine
This time
Gun cleaned
No misfire
