Man Down

(No, no...

Wake up. Wake up. It's just a dream.)

I can hear the screams deep inside of me

Like a siren piercing through my brain

Your insanity is my reality

Crawling out of this nightmare every day

I go back to these haunted memories

In the trenches, each moment I'm awake

How long until I break?

Man down, we've got a man down

Crying for help but I can't make a sound

Trapped inside

My own mind

I'm losing control of all my emotions

Is there a cure for these wounds that I've opened?

I'm bleeding out

We've got a man down

In the aftermath I watch the hour glass

Counting down till my senses start to fade

Running terrified through a house of lies

Every room full of thoughts I can't escape

The cycle plays again, I can't let it win

I've come too far just to throw it all away

Hanging on for one more day

Man down, we've got a man down

Crying for help but I can't make a sound

Trapped inside

My own mind

I'm losing control of all my emotions

Is there a cure for these wounds that I've opened?

I'm bleeding out

We've got a man down

Why can't I wash away,

The scars of yesterday?

I'm falling to my knees

God can you take this from me?

Man down, we got a man down

Crying for help but I can't make a sound

Trapped inside

My own mind

Man down, we got a man down

Crying for help but I can't make a sound

Trapped inside

My own mind

I'm losing control of all my emotions

Is there a cure for these wounds that I've opened?

I'm bleeding out

We've got a man down

We've got a man down

(He's still down. Still down.)
