isolation - dan gray (rapper) lyrics

[intro]
my fellow americans
major combat operations in iraq have ended and the battle of iraq
the united states and our allies have prevailed

[verse]
what will you write on my tombstone
once our child is fully grown
the date of my arrival and departure
or is my flight just another charter
i’m overthinking all the unnecessary factors
while dancing around the real issue like silent era actors
i remember every bullet loaded into our magazinеs
even the smell of smokе takes me back to all those scenes
firefights between extremists in such an unfamiliar territory
i thought the reward for serving my country was compensatory
we left the land with our minds detached and lives traumatized
safe to say i never saw these men again once my life was digitized
never tried to rebuild my bridges as they burned down
swimming around in my feelings of guilt and shame as i began to drown
deep in the ocean of paranoia and flashbacks to bullet wounds
but returning home halted me from moving forward when life had resumed
change will never come when we refuse to leave our glass houses
living in a world we refuse to interact with and understand
keeping this wealth of knowledge away from our own spouses
scared of losing who we love and what we earn in this apathetic wasteland
you could dig a hole deep enough to bury all of your problems
but there’s only so much time you can afford before you have to solve ‘em
isolation was the only way to become steadfast and headstrong
that’s why i stayed away from saying a single thing for so long
so long
i love you
[outro]
this nation thanks all the members of our coalition who joined in a n0ble cause
we thank the armed forces of the united kingdom, australia, and poland who shared in the hardships of war
we thank all the citizens of iraq who welcomed our troops and joined in the liberation of their own country
