Lyrics
When it’s time for war, it’s time to engage
When it’s time for peace, it’s time to engage
When it’s time to kill, it’s time to engage
Some return home, but our scars remain
Losing war inside my head
Haunted by all the blood I shed
Losing war inside my head
Fighting fights that I didn’t intend
My gun was pulled pointed at his head
I chose his fate while filled with dread
My gun was pulled pointed at his head
His memories now are all I have left
When the order comes, it’s time to engage
Lost in my home, it’s time to engage
Choices that I make, it’s time to engage
Honor those who died in my place
Losing war inside my head
Haunted by all the blood I shed
Losing war inside my head
Fighting fights that I didn’t intend
My gun was pulled pointed at his head
I chose his fate while filled with dread
My gun was pulled pointed at his head
His memories now are all I have left
