It's the only way
when you watch
your lifelong friends
die
next to you
slowly
all the way home
and all you can do
is hold them
hoping your warmth
will give them life
but nightmares
they can't be buried
like ashes
they follow you
all the way home.
Life is hard
when you filled with pride
when you love your family
so much
no chance
no friends
left to be buried
so you drink
until you forget
until all the memories
go out
with the tide
but nightmares
they can't be buried
like ashes
they follow you
all the way home.
Don't worry, eh.
He knows
he understands
he knows.
Ay, my spirit
is in you
you hold 'em now
inside &
carry yourself
as I did
very proud
and don't lose that spirit
cause I had one hard life
to make 'em easy
for you
for you.
