Lyrics
Verse 1:
Straighten up; stand up tall
Honor is a graceless fall
I can hear the whistle blow
War is over, coming home
But my battle’s never gone
Landmines all around me
Pre Chorus:
Lost in ways I can’t be found
Will she recognize me now
I’ve been gone for too long
Blinded by those bloodsoaked nights
Try to wash it off my eyes
I’m never home when I’m home
Main Chorus:
Bombs are going off inside
I died a thousand deaths tonight
I still hear them falling down
Wake me up; shake me out
Nightmares come crashing down
I’m home but I’m so far gone
Verse 2:
Place me in a state of race
Hang me out to try this taste
Chew me up and spit me out
Seize the bottle; seize the day
Chase the demons away
Always try to numb the pain
Pre Chorus 2:
Lost in ways I can’t be found
Does she recognize me now?
I was gone for too long
Haunted by those love sick eyes
Pull me in your paradise
Maybe you can save me
Main:
Bombs are going off inside
I died a thousand deaths tonight
I still hear them falling down
Wake me up; shake me out
Nightmares come crashing down
I’m home but I’m so far gone
Bridge:
I can’t go home
I can’t go home
I push you away to hide the pain
I’ve got a death grip on what remains
A hero full of shame
Pre Chorus:
Lost in ways I can’t be found
Does she recognize me now?
Main Chorus:
Bombs are going off inside
I died a thousand deaths tonight
I still hear them falling down
Wake me up; shake me out
Nightmares come crashing down
I’m home but I’m so far gone
Main Chorus:
Bombs are going off inside
I died a thousand deaths tonight
I still hear them falling down
