Man Down!

Hey I'm okay

Another day another nightmare begins

And the sound that I hear

is the relentless firing in my head

Shifting gear in the driver's seat as

the finger of g'd signals me

and this concrete line carries me

Never thought I'd bring the war back home

I'm a number; I'm a casualty of war

for a cause I never had the chance

didn't understand the score

They told me that I'd be okay

assume civilian life live day to day

But when I think about it my hands still shake

and I know what I am

I'm in overdrive barely alive!

As long as I keep moving I'm all right

Was that a muzzle flash from my past

or just my mind misfiring?

With one eye in mirror I see

the 'Cavalry of g'd" coming up on me

Bumper to bumper traveling fast

waving Satan over

I'm a number; I'm a casualty of war

for a cause I never had the chance

never understood the score

They told me that I'd be okay

assume civilian life live day to day

But when I think about it my hands still shake

and I know what I am
