Konflikt - Come Home lyrics
[Konflikt - Come Home lyrics]
When you come home i'll stop this
When you come home i'll hide it good
I'll never cry again
When you (Listen up real good)
Come home (yeah) to me
This morning I woke up
Wondering if our country really knows
The extents of what our soldiers
Do across the globe
Every day that we get to wake up
Safe it's thanks to those, fighting for us
Plenty of stories many will never be told
I'm letting them know they're never alone
Whenever they are alone
At times I know we act ungrateful
But in our hearts we know
The sacrifices they pursue
Like living so far from home
And every single thing they do
They never take for granted, no
Each one's a son, a brother, cousin
Father, uncle too some young and old
But from their point of view
That's nothing new
If you can't process the dangers
Or the years of strength in training
Then I guess what you see on TV
You claim is entertainment
What about the daughter getting teased
At school for the scarf that she wore
Ignoring the fact that her family's
Broke as it is and her father's at war
With a mother that's torn
And a brother at law school
Trying to support the fort
Working hard for them all
So every night she finds herself saying
When you come home i'll stop this
When you come home i'll hide it good
I'll never cry again
When you come home (yeah) to me
It's crazy, really
How we complain about our nine-to-fives
When we got soldiers overseas
That fight to try survive
And it's guys like these with pride
Who our country should idolise
So tell your little boy his father's a hero
Every time he cries
Give it up for the motivation
Those who know their stationed
In a city where they it ain't safe
And would rather be at home
But no complaining we could never understand
The weeks of no communication
To the outside world
Or the magnitude of any situation
What about the ones that don't come back?
What about the wife that mopes in black?
What about the kid so young
When the mum tries to explain it
They don't react
Think about the knock on the door
When the soldier await's and
You know what for when he lowers his hat
She's gonna tell her kids that
They'll never get to see their dad no more
Like i'm letting you know
You're never alone whenever you are alone
I hoped I never see the day
I has to let you go i'm not okay
But every day I'm getting better though
Today's a stepping stone
But, still right now
She finds her self saying
I saw you again i knew just where you'd be
I'll stop this real soon
When you're back safe with me
(But 'til then, I'll be singing this song)
When you come home i'll stop this
When you come home i'll hide it good
I'll never cry again
When you come home to me
When you come home i'll hide it good
I'll never cry again
When you (Listen up real good)
Come home (yeah) to me
This morning I woke up
Wondering if our country really knows
The extents of what our soldiers
Do across the globe
Every day that we get to wake up
Safe it's thanks to those, fighting for us
