[Verse]
Dust in my lungs shadows in my head
Boots still caked with the dirt of the dead
They cheer they clap they wave their flags
I hear their joy but I feel the drag
[Chorus]
They see a hero I see the beast
Fangs in the mirror the war won’t cease
They see the brave I see the pain
Every step home feels insane
[Verse 2]
Eyes wide open can’t close them tight
Dreams are wars dreams are fights
Every face just turns to ash
Every sound a thunderous crash
[Prechorus]
They call me strong they call me proud
But my screams get lost in the crowd
[Chorus]
They see a hero I see the beast
Fangs in the mirror the war won’t cease
They see the brave I see the pain
Every step home feels insane
[Bridge]
A gun in my hand still feels so light
But my heart is heavy in the night
Is this my home is this my curse
Living feels worse living feels worse
