Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence: War Inside My Head- Dream Theater

[Setzophone]

Napalm showers
Showed the cowards
We weren't there to mess around

Through heat exhaustion
And mind distortion
A military victory mounted on innocent ground

Hearing voices form miles away
Saying things never said
Seeing shadows in the light of the day
Waging a war inside my head

Years and years of
Bloodshed and warfare
Our mission was only to get in and kill

A free vacation
Of palmtrees and shrapnel
Trading innocence for permanent psychotic hell

Hearing voices from miles away
Saying things never said
Seeing shadows in the light of the day
Waging a war inside my head

Feeling strangers staring my way
Reading minds never read
Tasting danger with each word I say
Waging a war inside my head

yeah war is ugly and stupid. i read in time recently u.s. soldiers sexually humilated and tortured iraqi soldiers. before reading that i was more naive and thought we were more or less the good guys. ignorance can be bliss and the truth hurts like an opened wound.

This is true, this is true. Sometimes we are better off not knowing what is going on around us, cuz when you know about your surroundings you are usually receiving information you didn't want to hear.
