Boom!
Last night I slept
Boom!
with both eyes cracked
Boom!
in a rabbit hole
Boom!
flat on my back
Boom!
next to buddy Rex
Boom!
who replaced buddy Tim
Boom!
who replaced buddy Fisher
Boom!
and all the rest of them
Boom!
Eighteen years is Rex
Boom!
just as scared as I
Boom!
we prayed before we slept
Boom!
no one blacks out our sky
Boom!
or on our chest
Boom!
draws an X
Boom!
that would lead us to
Boom!
what we feared next
Boom!
Clouds march in
Boom!
no rain comes
Boom!
no lightning, no thunder
Boom!
just bullets and bombs
Boom!
but now I'm here
Boom!
so I must be strong
Boom!
must follow the line
Boom!
must move along
Boom!
Can you hear that?
Boom!
Dreams exploding
Boom!
Can you hear that?
Boom!
Minds imploding
Boom!
Can you hear that?
Boom!
Bravery pushing through
Boom!
Can you hear what
Boom!
extends for you
Boom!
The screams of heroes
Boom!
the warriors' cry
Boom!
to see the peace
Boom!
before we die
