COMING HOME by Annette Hancock, Dean James, & Wayne Lemessy
1st verse
YES, I KILLED SOMEONE TODAY
NEVER THOUGHT IT’D BE THIS WAY
LEFT A DARKNESS IN MY SOUL
HAUNTED BY FEAR SHOWN IN HIS EYES
DIDN’T THINK IT WAS HIS DAY TO DIE
ANOTHER DAY OF KILLING TAKES ITS TOLL
LOST MY FRIEND JUST YESTERDAY
“HE WAS A HERO”, THEY’LL ALL SAY
“HE DIED SO WE COULD ALL BE FREE”
NOW HIS FAMILY’S LEFT ALONE
KNOWING HE’S NOT COMING HOME
NO YELLOW RIBBONS ON THEIR TREE
CHORUS
DO WE HAVE TO DIE
WHY DO WE HAVE TO FIGHT
I WON’T LIVE YOUR LIE
JUST WANT TO LIVE MY LIFE
2nd verse
WHEN DID I LOSE MY CONTROL
THERE’S NO WAY TO FILL THIS HOLE
WON’T BE A SOLDIER IN YOUR WAR
TIME FOR US TO ALL GO HOME
TIME TO LEAVE THIS DANGER ZONE
DON’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE FIGHTING FOR
CHORUS
BRIDGE-
LAY YOUR WEAPONS DOWN, HEAR THE QUIET SOUND
PUT THE GUNS AWAY, LET’S LIVE LIFE ANOTHER DAY
FIGHTING’S GOTTA CEASE, WHAT WE NEED IS PEACE
CHORUS- VAMP- CHORUS- OUT
