[Pre Chorus]
I can’t help that I was born this way
Cast in subtle darkness blackens every day
From the battlefield in my mind to the war I left behind
Is it really gone? Does it ever fade away
Sometimes I fight the demons and sometimes I’m okay
[Piano and Fiddle Solo]
[Verse One]
Another sleepless night shaking in my bed
All of my fears exploding in my head
Why was I so fearless during the trauma I endured?
But now so many years passed I tremble so absurd…
[Chorus]
Flashback. Take me back. Things I cannot see
Flashback. My mind cracks. Is this who I will be?
Flashback. Another attack. Silent outside my mind.
Flashback. It’s-a fact. Right before my eyes.
[Verse Two]
The faces that haunt me in night terrors and dreams
I can’t bring back or make go away through my wretched screams
If I could only take it back but what good would it do
Memories fade like a passing wave brings me right here back to you
[Bridge]
If I could take it back make it go away
Then my mind would hide these thought but they always will betray
[Chorus]
Flashback. Take me back. Things I always see
Flashback. My mind attacks. I just want to scream.
Flashback. I shout ATTACK. No longer silent in my mind
Flashback. I will crack. Right before your eyes.
[heavy Fiddle Solo]
[Verse Three]
All the drugs they try to feed me to silence the darkness screams.
Nothing ever seems to work or so far… or so it seems
Then a brother introduced me to a Savior I just had to believe
All the evil that I done forgiven, but I still have these dark dreams.
[Bridge]
I still get the terrors but they don’t seem to stay
This man they call Jesus will help me along the way
[metal guitar solo]
[Final Chorus]
Flashback. He’s got my back. Makes it go away.
Flashback. I’m still attacked But all I do is pray.
Flashback. When I’m cracked. He washes it away.
Flashback. The blood is that. Washes me today.
Flashback.
Flashback.
Flashback.
[Guitar Solo]
