Night falls and they come to me Ghosts from the days I won't forget I can hear them crawling near Upon my walls, upon my bed Faces and names Rise from the haze Turn every breath to shame Darkness conceals the marks on your skin But the pain will not go away Flashback! The horror's rising again For years it's stayed inside Why can't I run away from that hell? Why does it always drag me back? Cursing the life you walk through the fire breathing the blood and fear Child of the war Your wounded soul will never heal Rescue me! Flashback! I feel the touch of death It has become a part of me I am nothing but a prisoner in the narrow cage of memories of a broken man
