Sitting waiting in the falling rain Getting ready to begin again
Wounded lying, crying, bodies moving, dying All around there is the smell of death and fire
Here the planes are coming Hear the soldiers running Killing on a scale to comprehend
Why are we here In this place...here to kill Please God forgive us for What we have done
I always thought I was doing right As of now I'm not feeling so sure
I'm at a place of where I give no grace I'm a soldier of war
I sit waiting for my darkest hour to come I cannot think about the things that I have done It shouldn’t take a fool to see that I believe Accept the consequence, repent for what I’ve done
You tell me what is certain but I’ll tell you what is true You tell me what is honesty, when all around is death and cruelty The making of a man is fire, not giving into our desires Within the truth it lies within the only thing
Mother of Mercy Angel of death desire Mother of mercy Taking my last breath, of fire Mother of mercy Angel of pain Mother of mercy Taking my last breath
Some say you are a lost cause, some say you're a saint Just being here's an act of suffering and restraint Walk down the long dark road to ruin and panic not I’ll die a lonely death of that I'm certain of
Rivers flow with blood there's nowhere left to hide It’s hard to comprehend there's anyone left alive Sick of all the killing and the reek of death Will god tell me what religion is to man I don't hold with bad religion understand what's underneath it Now I come to think of it, I just don't hold at all you know it You say you are a holy man, but what is it you do From where I stand is nothing but a hollow man I see
Mother of Mercy Angel of death desire Mother of mercy Taking my last breath, of fire Mother of mercy Angel of pain Mother of mercy Taking my last breath
Mother of Mercy Angel of death desire Mother of mercy Taking my last breath, of fire Mother of mercy Angel of pain Mother of mercy Drawing my last breath
I'm just a lonely soldier fighting in a bloody hopeless war Don't know what I'm fighting, who it is, or what I'm fighting for Thought it was for money, make my fortune, now I'm not so sure Seem to just have lost my way
