So...
I'm writing you this letter between rests
'Cause yesterday a bullet found my chest
And I don't got the energy to dress myself
And I can't walk without help
And I...
I can't remember why I joined this war
And I can't tell you what we're fighting for
I guess I wasn't smart enough to see the game
And that no one's keeping score
And now...
You would not believe the things I miss
It's all the little things that fill that list
Like playing with the dogs
And helping father chop the wood behind the fence
Now I...
I'm not sure if I'll see another day
The doctor said it could go either way
But I just wanted you to know
No matter if I sink or fall or blink out in this hospital
That I'm alright
Yeah, I made peace with it all
Mistakes and all
Mistakes and all
Mistakes and all
Mistakes and all
Mistakes and all
***
Well, the men arrived as the sun began to set
And they pulled a wooden crate 'bout six feet long
I could read the news in their downcast eyes
My boy had passed away
So I stepped inside
'Cause there was nothin' left to say
I'm writing you this letter between rests
'Cause yesterday a bullet found my chest
And I don't got the energy to dress myself
And I can't walk without help
And I...
I can't remember why I joined this war
And I can't tell you what we're fighting for
