There’s a place I used to know
A place that I called home
A place where I thought everything was going to be fine
You took my family
My friends away from me
And took us to a place that looked like hell quite honestly
If this is how it’s supposed to be
I’ll close my eyes so I don’t see
And take this image to my grave
And as the blood is drained from me
I’ll leave this place so honestly
Another life taken in vain
There’s a place I used to know
A place that I called home
A place where I thought everything was going to be fine
You took my family
My friends away from me
And took us to a place that feels like hell
If this is how it’s supposed to be
I’ll close my eyes so I don’t see
And take this image to my grave
And as the blood is drained from me
I’ll leave this place so honestly
Another life taken in vain
Did you look in their eyes when they died?
Did you hear anything as they cried?
As they came to their end, did you feel anything?
Did you look in their eyes as they died?
