I wrote her a letter yesterday; told her that I'm fine
That I can't wait to come on back and make up for lost time
The same life I promised her before, I'm going to give her when I open that door

They say I'm here to fight their cause, and that I could die trying
I'd like to think their aim is true, but I think that they're lying
The same life I was living well before, I'm taking back soon as I open that door

Lord will I live to see that day?
Deliver me a sign
‘cause it is only a matter of time before I lose my mind
yeah I'm losing my mind

The same life I was living well before, I'm taking back soon as I open that door
‘cause every day I wake up to this war
I load up my gun and I can't tell you what for

I wrote her a letter yesterday; told her that I'm fine
I may not see her ever again, but I'm gonna die trying
I'm gonna die trying
I'm gonna die trying die trying
