Tell me what I'm supposed to think‬

I just wanna make it home
     Am
When you ship me off to war

This ain't a video game, you see

I shot the kid same age as me
               Am
'Cause he ain't from the same place as me

And now the bloodstain stays with me

I wanna just believe the dogma

But I can't take it much longer

 Something died inside when I wondered

Better wake me from this crazy dream
