Verse 1

Boots in the dust, heartbeat like a drum,

Another sunrise, another smoke-filled sun.

Letters in my pocket, names carved in my mind,

Trying to leave the broken pieces behind.

Every shadow moves, every silence screams,

Nothing's ever quite the way it seems.

Pre-Chorus

They see the headlines... we see the scars.

They count the miles... we count the stars.

Chorus

We're fighting a war while they're fighting a war at home,

Different battlefields, but we're all alone.

Some wave the flag, some cry, "Bring them back."

Some say it's wrong, some never look back.

We're all just people underneath the same sky,

Wondering who decides who lives and who dies.

Verse 2

Brothers beside me carrying invisible weight,

Laughing one minute, gone before it's late.

Every face I pass is somebody's son,

Nobody really wins when the fighting's done.

The noise never leaves when the silence begins,

The hardest battles are the ones within.

Bridge

Don't cheer for the bullets.

Don't pray for revenge.

Pray every mother gets her child again.

If peace had a voice, we'd all know its name.

Too many heroes lost to someone else's game.

Final Chorus

We're fighting a war while they're fighting a war at home,

Trying to find hope where the wild winds blow.

No matter the side, every tear falls the same.

Every cross, every flag remembers a name.

When the last gun fades and the smoke is gone,

May we learn that peace is what made us strong.

Outro

No more empty chairs.

No more last goodbyes.

Only one more sunrise... beneath peaceful skies.
