I can't take this pain here anymore,
Sometimes I forget just what I'm fighting for,
Everyday the temp is one hundred four or more,
I can't take this pain here anymore.
My feelings fragmented, all shut down,
Bullets flying, rockets screaming, hit the ground,
Just want to close the door on war,
I can't take this pain here anymore.
Iraq is where we fight and die,
Sandstorms blowing, blocking out the sky,
Sunburned face, weary arms, feet blistered and sore,
I can't take this pain here anymore.
Struggling daily just to take a fresh breath,
Staring deeply into the face of death,
Not knowing if I can close this door,
I can't take this pain here....Anymore!
