Lyrics
The Death of Friends
The things I’ve done here, I’ll never tell
Hate’s a weapon, I aimed to kill
Through Iraq and Afghanistan
I've seen the world on fire and the death of friends
I didn’t listen when Dad tried to explain
There would be no glory, only pain
When he mumbled about his time in ‘Nam
He saw the world on fire and the death of friends
I’ll get a leather smile, a tank of fuel, go 300 miles
I’ll play the biker part.
Something new, red white and blue, a fresh tattoo
Of my homicidal heart
Almost done here, I can’t fight anymore
They’re trying to sign me up again
Say it’s not a pointless war
Can’t explain why I survived
Just want to leave these memories behind
Don’t look back, wide awake, Eyes on the road
Will it be the bike or me that explodes?
Feet on the highway pegs, and ass in the saddle
Silent prayers for the next ones that go to battle
But nothing changes, no, the cycle never ends
They’ll see the world on fire and the death of friends
