Empire of the Gun

It seems like yesterday

That day I held you in my arms

Now I'm gone

The warm embrace of my protector is lost forever

I will make it back to you or die trying

You are with me every step I take

I know not why

But I must honor you

I swear I will make it back home

Back home

Soldiers won't be cast into their afterlives

For a fight they never believed in

Go!

It seems like yesterday

That day I held you in my arms

Now I'm gone

The warm embrace of my protector is lost forever

I will make it back to you or die trying

You are with me every step I take

I know not why

But I must honor you

I swear I will make it back home

Back home

Soldiers won't be cast into their afterlives

For a fight they never believed in

I wasn't born to die

Empire of the gun

Empire the...gun

Empire of the gun

We will not fail

We will not falter

Empire of the gun

Soldiers won't be cast into their afterlives

For a fight they never believed in

I wasn't born to die

But I would sacrifice my life
