Lyrics
Far Away Coast
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here in the trenches the fist of the beast
For fear of an atmosphere poisoned deceased
With a gas mask to keep me from breathing my death
It's american soil I hope for at best
But the duty I serve can't begin to compare
To my ancestors battles and wars throught the years
Though the loneliness strikes like an enemy shell I
Pray for my home but still sit here in hell
Sail away to a place that's unkown
Taken away from my friends and my home
To a place they call sacred a place I call hell
I long for that corner I once knew so well
Go to the grind it's all that I have
Work on and on with nothing to show
But a graying face in this dying place
Thats a lock in my solitude
I think of a place on a faraway coast
Where friends are so dear and there's reason to toast
A cloudy image of a middle east land
Comes down and wrecks my hopeful thought
Sail away to a place that's unkown
Taken away from my friends and my home
To a place they call sacred a place I call hell
I long for that corner I once knew so well
