I can't forget what
Seemed like yesterday
The memories of war
They just won't fade
See through their lies
The years I was there
It seems so far away
Everyone tried to ignore it
Saying it'll go away
It never went away
No matter how much we pretend
The lives that were lost
The wounds will never mend
See through their lies
The living envyig the dead
Many will never know
It's hard to believe
In a cheap thing called hope
Slept under mosquito nets
We used kerosene lamps
I remember the discomfort
The air was so damp
See through their lies
At times I couldn't even breathe
'Cause the nights were so hot
I remember scratching my arms
Til they almost bled
They kept telling me
War never hurt anyone
It's all part of life
You got to take ir if you want to be strong
See through their lies
They were only lying to themselves
'Cause the war is still goin on
And my heart sank for past that's gone
