Why can't I see why can't I hear? 
Why does it feel like I'm going to disappear? 
All I see is a bright light.  
And for some reason it gives me delight 
 
I see a figure in the distance. 
She is as bright as the sun. 
She tells me my suffering is done. 
And with that I put down my gun 
 
As I do, she picks me up. 
then we start flying towards the sun 
As we go up, I can see the war.  
I can see were Barry bombed the boat near the shore. 
 
I look at her face she was as cool as a cucumber. 
But as I look back, I can see my men hiding behind some lumber. 
I remember that we would carry at least two tons of equipment. 
I can even see an incoming shipment. 
 
As we go up, I say my goodbyes. 
Knowing that I'm leaving my friends behind 
She tells me its ok  
But I don’t care cause all I can do is cry.
