Helicopter flying low
Beaming a light
Through my window
Where can one go
This is my home
The war zone.
Things will get better
So they say
They are only shooting
Around the corner today
The year will be over
In just a few days
Will it matter?
As I pray
Will it be just be another day?
Feeling beat down
Very little sleep
Children crying
In the street
Mama cussing
Pulling them along
Look at the clock
It’s 3 in the morn
Helicopter beaming light
Ambulance sirens
All through the night
Restless souls all alone
Casualties
Of the war zone
Infliction
Beaming a light
Through my window
Where can one go
This is my home
The war zone.
Things will get better
So they say
They are only shooting
Around the corner today
The year will be over
In just a few days
Will it matter?
As I pray
Will it be just be another day?
Feeling beat down
Very little sleep
Children crying
In the street
Mama cussing
Pulling them along
Look at the clock
It’s 3 in the morn
Helicopter beaming light
Ambulance sirens
All through the night
Restless souls all alone
Casualties
Of the war zone
Infliction
