歌词
[Instrumental]
[War Drums]
[Guitar]
(Verse 1)
From Virginia's shadows, under hardship's cloud,
A young soul escapes, where dreams aren't allowed.
Into battle's arms, with a fate not his own,
To a foreign land, where the war drums have grown.
(Pre-Chorus)
Echoes of battles, the past whispers low,
Every step forward, shadows follow.
Alone in his fight, through the darkest nights,
Chasing the light, with all his might.
(Chorus)
War drums beat, in the war zone heat,
Battle hardened, scars unseen.
Marching on, though my friend has gone,
Veteran’s cry, who cares? I’m the one.
[Solo]
(Verse 2)
Side by side in the desert’s embrace,
Lost his brother, his friend — a vacant space.
Underneath that foreign sky, a nightmare roared,
Leaving memories of a friendship adored.
(Verse 3)
Dreams of peace are shadows of war,
Questions linger, what was it all for?
Invisible in the crowd, he searches for signs,
For a reason to heal, as time aligns.
[guitar riff]
(Pre-Chorus)
Echoes of battles, the past whispers low,
Every step forward, shadows follow.
Alone in his fight, through the darkest nights,
Chasing the light, with all his might.
(Chorus)
War drums beat, in the war zone heat,
Battle hardened, scars unseen.
Marching on, though my friend has gone,
Veteran’s cry, who cares? I’m the one.
(Bridge)
Back home it’s cold, the scars unseen,
He's more than the wars where he's been.
Turned away at his own front door,
What's left for a soldier who's fought before?
(Chorus)
War drums beat, in the war zone heat,
Battle hardened, scars unseen.
Marching on, though my friend has gone,
Veteran’s cry, who cares? I’m the one.
(Outro)
Now he stands in Virginia's quiet,
A soldier's journey, fiercely defiant.
No cheers, no welcome, just the night,
Holding tight to what's left, with all his might.
[End]
