My Reason Sleeps

These are the final days, the final tour, crucial stand of the platoon

A downpour siege us with no compassion, washing the blood in my face

I meet the devil's eyes, I watch the fire rise

The outpost is taken, my men are shaken

My reason sleeps again

Lost inside this dreaming

See blood on my hands

At the mercy of monsters I am

The lonely survivor beholds a restart, out of the massacre, end of the war

A travel back home, no medals could pay the lives that were wasted away

I meet my children's eyes, I see the sun rise

The soil trembles one more time

I dream the dream of reason

I close my eyes for what I've done

I dream the dream of reason

When reason sleeps monsters may come

Call me pathetic and fool

But there are monsters inside you too
