Across The Sea

This Is Dedicated To All Our Troops Overseas

Look to the ones who can lead us
Across these seas of heartache and misery
Can’t comprehend the pain of living
It’s tearing the threads
Of everything we can never be

Overwhelmed by the image living in our heads
Never before have so many been forced to live within
Reaching for a memory when it finally sinks in
So many lost when the world caved in

All the emotions branded into our hearts
To reclaim the feeling of warmth
Before the world went dark
Everybody hiding in their own lonely space
When they're lost without the words to relate
Yearning for a way to once again trust in fate
Before reality reared its ugly face

Trapped behind a wall of tears
Alone to bear suffering and fear
Reaching for the ones across the sea
Giving themselves so we can be free
