EASEFUL DEATH

Sun is rising
Dawn of another day
Yet my mind is
Thousand of miles away

In the trenches
Covered in blood and dirt
Days were endless
Too numb to ever hurt

We built crosses
Before we even died
Always ever
Ready to say goodbye

In the crosshairs
Everyone looks the same
Pull the trigger,
Don’t have to know their name

CHORUS

Drowning in my dreams (the waves are crushing me, I’m drowning in the deep)
Horrors can’t be unseen (the dead men everywhere, the thousand yarded stares)
Demons buried so deep (can devils be redeemed, for sins we can’t wash clean)
Only company left to keep (It’s always crushing me, always crushing me)

Double vision
Drawing a labored breath
Each day passing
Craving an easeful death

Something’s stolen
Never to be returned
We were hollowed
Still, there’s no lesson learned

CHORUS
Drowning in my dreams (the waves are crushing me, I’m drowning in the deep)
Horrors can’t be unseen (the dead men everywhere, the thousand yarded stares)
Demons buried so deep (can devils be redeemed, for sins we can’t wash clean)
Only company left to keep (It’s always crushing me, always crushing me)

BRIDGE
They said we’d fight for liberty
For freedom and for family
But war has left a shell of me
So steep the price for victory

Now nightmares follow endlessly
Eroding at reality
I’m haunted by the memories
It’s crushing me, it’s crushing me
