Mama take a look at your boy 
Face a man without a soul 
He is standing in the doorway 
I'll be gone, before the night is over 
I have to go, I have to run to the border 

Lost my way I run in desperation 
Lost the words I lost communication 

All I see is death beneath my window 
All I need is to heal my broken mind 
I will catch my own wounded shadow 
Just before we leave it all behind 

Mama keep the faith it's alright 
Your boy's a mercenary man 
A soldier made of steel 
A shotgun rings; the wind is calling my name 
Fields of gold beneath a blood red sky 

Lost my way I run in desperation 
Lost the words I lost communication 

All I see is death beneath my window 
All I need is to heal my broken mind 
I will catch my own wounded shadow 
Just before we leave it all behind 

Just before we leave it all behind
