How I Survived the Massacre
I'll Never Understand
I fought as hard and strong as any other man
Yet I return as hero and they return as ghosts
A heavy burden on the hearts of those they love the most
Take me back to the place where I used to be
Before I lost a lifetime
Show me all of the love that I used to see
In the eyes of the lonely lost man
And the eyes of the lonely loved one
In the eyes of this lonely loved one
In the eyes of this lonely loved one

In the eyes of this lonely loved one
Ooh prize valid



Less loss
More pain

Last day
Prepare for the end

Now my reward is peace and quiet, of both I'm never sure
The sound of silence scares me, senseless ever since the war
I drink away my memories, too vivid to be told
The hollow heart I carry now is no good for my soul
So take me back to the place where I used to be
Before I lived a lifetime
Show me all of the love I had

The love that I used to see
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
Take me back to the place where I used to be
Before I lived a lifetime
Show me all of the love that I used to see
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
Yes
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
In the eyes of this lonely lover of mine
