Haunted by sand

I see the faces every night, I can't escape

The desert's heat still burns, I can't erase

The sound of gunfire, it never fades away

The shadows of the past, they always stay

I’m still fighting battles in my head

Even though the war’s long since dead

The sand keeps pouring through my veins

Someone save me from this pain

I’m haunted by the sand, can't find my way back home

These demons in my head won't leave me alone

I try to stand tall, but I fall again

Somebody save me from this hell I'm in

The silence is too loud, it cuts so deep

Memories of brothers that I couldn’t keep

The weight of guilt, it drags me down

In a world that’s moving on, I’m about to drown

I’m still fighting battles in my mind

Searching for the peace I’ll never find

The desert whispers through the wind

Is there salvation for this sin?

I’m haunted by the sand, can't find my way back home

These demons in my head won't leave me alone

I try to stand tall, but I fall again

Somebody save me from this hell I’m in

I scream, but no one hears my cries

I bleed, but there's no peace inside

The war rages on, though the fight is done

I'm still a soldier, lost and numb

I’m haunted by the sand, can't find my way back home

These demons in my head won’t leave me alone

I try to stand tall, but I fall again

Somebody save me from this hell I’m in

I’m haunted by the sand, will I ever be free?

Somebody save me... before I cease to be
