You run for shelter from the sparks
You scan the night sky for a star
You point the toy gun at the cam,
You glance up,
towards a soldier, towards a son,
a distant father you’ve never known
Stars shine no matter what’s
going on down here
An RPG round has hit the hatch,
the blast is deafening,
my vision’s blurred
Baby pray for me
You run to the playhouse, and let no one in
Dressed like a ghost, you’re chasing mom
Bang your toddler drum set
made of pots and spoons,
Ask the burning question right on cue
The new president promised
to call us back,
but three years have passed
and nothing has happened yet!
Oh yes, he promised
to get us back,
but this guerrilla warfare
is taking its bloody toll
on many a soldier, on many a son,
assaulted women raped by their own.
Stars shine no matter when,
all this shame’ll be over
on countless injured
on broken souls
on missing lovers, forever lost
Baby wait for me
