Casualties of war; as I approach the barricade
Where s the enemy? Who do I invade?
Bullets of Teflon, bulletproof vest rip
Tear ya outta ya frame with a bag full of clips
Cause I got a family that waits for my return
To get back home is my main concern
I ma get back to New York in one piece
but I m bent in the sand that is hot as the city streets
Sky lights up like fireworks blind me
Bullets, whistlin over my head remind me...
President Bush said attack
Flashback to Nam, I might not make it back
Missile hits the area, screams wake me up
from a war of dreams, heat up the M-16
Basic training, trained for torture
Take no prisoners, and I just caught ya
Addicted to murder, send more bodybags
They can t identify em, leave the nametags
I get a rush when I see blood, dead bodies on the floor
CASUALTIES OF WAR! (4X)

Day divides the night and night divides the day
It s all hard work and no play
More than combat, it s far beyond that
Cause I got a kill or be killed kind of attack
Area s mapped out, there ll be no, Stratego
Me and my platoon make a boom wherever we go
But what are we here for? Who s on the other side of the wall?
Somebody give the President a call
But I hear warfare scream through the air
Back to the battlegrounds, it s war they declare
A Desert Storm: let s see who reigns supreme
Something like Monopoly: a government scheme
Go to the Army, be all you can be
Another dead soldier? Hell no, not me
So I start letting off ammunition in every direction
Allah is my only protection
But wait a minute, Saddam Hussein prays the same
and this is Asia, from where I came
I m on the wrong side, so change the target
Shooting at the general; and where s the sergeant?
Blame it on John Hardy Hawkins for bringing me to America
Now it s mass hysteria
I get a rush when I see blood, dead bodies on the floor
CASUALTIES OF WAR! (4X)

The war is over, for now at least
Just because they lost it don t mean it s peace
It s a long way home, it s a lot to think about
Whole generation, left in doubt
Innocent families killed in the midst
It ll be more dead people after this
So I m glad to be alive and walkin
Half of my platoon came home in coffins
Except the general, buried in the Storm
in bits and pieces no need to look for em
I played it slick and got away with it
Rigged it up so they would think they did it
Now I m home on reserves and you can bet
when THEY call, I m going AWOL
Cause it ain t no way I m going back to war
when I don t know who or what I m fighting for
So I wait for terrorists to attack
Every time a truck backfires I fire back
I look for shelter when a plane is over me
Remember Pearl Harbor? New York could be over, G
Kamikaze, strapped with bombs
No peace in the East, they want revenge for Saddam
Did I hear gunshots, or thunder?
No time to wonder, somebody s going under
Put on my fatigues and my camoflouge
Take control, cause I m in charge
When I snapped out of it, it was blood, dead bodies on the floor
CASUALTIES OF WAR! (4X)

He appears in a dream I can t forget
Though we never met, no we never met
I wake up with my eyes all soaking wet (crying)
Cause we never met, no we never met

Over and over, night after night he s there
Under the covers, he answers my lover s prayer

In a...

Que me buscas otra vez
Que me tienes a tus pies
Y gobiernas mi cabeza

Que me pides por favor
Que te niegas por amor
Y al fin nada te interesa

Inventas mil contradicciones sin sentido
Y soy rehén de tus sentidos siempre

Que me haces vigilar
Que me echas sin hablar
Luego vuelves por sorpresa

Que me buscas otra vez
Y...

Oh yeah yeah!
Because

Chorus:
Because of the love that you ve given to me.
Baby once I was blind, but now I see
I was lost, but I m found and my spirit is free
All because of your love.

I was a stranger in a strange and lonely world looking for a...

Da ist nichts, was ich noch sagen kann
damit irgendwann alles besser wird
und da ist nichts, was du noch sagen kannst
damit irgendwann das aufhört, was in mir ist

und wenn es so wär, dass ich dich niemals mehr wieder seh
erinner...

Oooo ooo ooo,
Oooo ooo ooo.
Oooo ooo ooooH!

Im tired of your open mouth,
Crawling inside my skin,
And this play we never quit,
The fight within the cross begun,
Say that its too late,
When a man has gotta learn to hate (hate).

Urrahh!!

Forget the time I said I would,
Replace me with,
But never will,
Beyond the facts that...
