Still Fighting the War - Slaid Cleaves[00:00:00]
Hard times coming home now [00:00:03]
Can't get your feet on the ground[00:00:06]
Got some issues and no one wants you around[00:00:09]
Barely sleeping and[00:00:15]
You can't get through to the VA on the phone[00:00:16]
No one's hiring [00:00:21]
And no one wants to give you a loan[00:00:22]
And everyone else is carrying on[00:00:27]
Just like they've always done before[00:00:29]
You've been home for a coupla years[00:00:33]
Now buddy but you're still fighting the war[00:00:35]
Flashback to Fallujah [00:00:44]
Lost another best friend[00:00:47]
Three tours of duty and you wonder[00:00:50]
When it's all gonna end[00:00:51]
Body's broken and bone shattered [00:00:56]
Blood and dust in your mouth[00:00:59]
Getting weary but you're running with the few[00:01:02]
And the proud[00:01:04]
Sometimes you wonder why you went [00:01:08]
You never wonder what you stayed on for[00:01:10]
You've been home for a coupla years now buddy[00:01:13]
But you're still fighting the war[00:01:16]
Men go off to war for a hundred reasons[00:01:21]
But they all come home with the same demons[00:01:26]
Some you can keep at bay for a while[00:01:33]
And some will pin you to the floor[00:01:36]
You've been home for a coupla years now buddy[00:01:39]
But you're still fighting the war[00:01:42]
The bedspread is fraying faded and tearing apart[00:01:50]
Two strangers holding each other in the dark[00:01:56]
Tell me what were you dreaming [00:02:02]
How did you think it would end [00:02:05]
How many heroes are scattered out into the wind [00:02:08]
And all the happily ever afters turn to broken dishes[00:02:13]
And slamming doors[00:02:17]
You've been home for a coupla years now buddy[00:02:21]
But you're still fighting the war[00:02:24]
