It's been us, making it through all our lives And I Can't help but think of how cruel it would have been Without you by my side I can feel how we've changed I can feel who we've become How we're numb to the pain What we've seen and all we've done I'm on the floor letting no screams out Somehow, it doesn't hurt anymore. We grew close as children, Orphans under a roof And they spied on us We had stolen textbooks Hidden in our rooms We had had enough We ran for dreamland Down the rainy roads A man came to us In the night, he brought us home
Soon, All of us were tucked in beds With new sheets And I, Sipped warm water as I listened to him speak "You beautiful children Are the war at it's worst You've been on the base all your lives. And me, well I run things here, you're safe by my side. I'm alone now, since I lost my wife." We saved his life, I'm sure of it Old and grey We gave him the love he lost And became his family He gave us our education We were thirsty for more And when the call came in we were all Taken off guard - "Yes, hello, Sergeant Rondaine Special Ops, America. Your teens have demonstrated Everything we could ever want." We're on the field killing a man now - How come it doesn't hurt anymore?
