The (War)Path Home by Jersey D GibsonMy time has come;the end of times
brought back to you;what I brought back
I've fought all this way;I lost again on this day
walked in blood, my footprints tell;my footprints say I walked in blood
but I lost again;but again I lost
Laid my guns down for the final time;laid my head down for the final time
drowning in tears;drowning in fears
if this is a dream, wake me up;wake me up this is but a dream
I fear my fear I see;I see my fear I fear
this is the final shot;the final shot is this
Broken beyond repair, can you see me?;can you see I'm broken beyond repair?
walked too long down this bloody road;down this bloody path walked too long
but I swear that I miss you;but I miss you that I swear
it will all come down;down it will all come
taken the warpath home;I took the warpath home 04/22/2012
