1
After the war
2
And now that they've sent us homeward
3
I can't help but feel that I'm on my own
4
No one can see just what this conflict has done to
5
The minds of the men who are on their way home
6
I'm scarred for life
7
but it's not my flesh that's wounded
8
So how can I face the torment alone
9
The vivid scenes and all the recurring nightmares
10
I lay there and sweat until it gets light
11
People say 'don't worry'
12
Say that time's a perfect healer
13
That the nightmares they will come to pass
14
Can't hear what they're saying
15
I am living in my own world
16
And I'm feeling trance-like all the time
17
I hear voices in my head
18
Could I really be going crazy
19
In the night the visions seem so real
20
Do you care if you live or die
21
When you laugh are you really crying
22
You're not sure what's real anymore
23
Fortunes of war
24
Fortunes of war
25
Fortunes of war
26
no pain anymore
27
Sometimes I wake
28
I feel that my spirit's broken
29
I wonder if I've the strength...
30
carry on carry on
