i've stood by, and i've cried, while my friends have died you ever had a friend kill themselves, shot down, or knifed? just when i think it's happened for the final time, it comes knocking back again to devastate my life 20 years of hell 20 years of hell for i've been living far too long and i wish my life was done (x2) 20 years of hell i said, "good-bye" to you, on a summer's night now i wish that i had stayed with you but, oh it's too late next thing i knew was that you'd been in an attack and you were laying in a cold morgue stuffed into a body bag 20 years of hell 20 years of hell for i've been living far too long and i wish my life was done i saw you last night you said that i was wrong and where'd i get the idea you were gone? i woke up to the sounds of my own screams i woke up in a cold sweat it was just a dream and that dream goes on and on and on... will it ever end? well i don't... i don't know i don't...know..
