Deliver Me

The Words in this poem speak for themselves =) Tonight I killed a boy He raised his gun and shot Never lived another day Two days before him, he was my comrade In the forests a dying oath Just to save my own Save me from this war, Bleed me, cut me, save me, All men fall, Wars are fought between lonely men End my pain, just pull the plug This wasn't my fight One by one, my men fell Before the sun could rise, I was fighting for my life "I respect those who defend their homeland I pay homage to the dead but Their families turn their heads and shake All alone you brought this guilt on me, I can't take it anymore, call me a coward" At home families wait for loved ones to return But how can i tell them their son isn't alive? Daunting eyes and cold backs They await me at home Their eyes turned away from the world They are the last to see the hell we went through And the last ones to feel pain The ultimate high is for men to die, A ruler´s tool, priest´s excuse, tyrant´s delight... Just another method for containing power All for personal wealth and satisfaction Deliver me from this war, I obey to kill, I kill to survive Devils Damnation because of you It's not for me, It's all for you When do you think of others? I suffer because of you Inside you think I am ok? Devils eternity because of you Please deliver me from this war.
