you come back
waves kiss the shore,
I feel your pull
but I can't go to war
how can I betray myself once more?

always trying to escape a non-existing loop
straining at the threads of fate and crushing troops

I've walked through hell and now the ground lies cold
I won't surrender and be killed by your oath
my soldiers were torn
but your artillery can't threat me no more

stared down my warriors' skulls
now my armor shields my scars

by my inner battles in shellshock still,
a heart that once stood behind steel bars
upon the enemy will stand free
