your hands recoil from the shots fired
sweat perched on your forehead
-a quick image-
those same hands shake me awake
screams evaporating from my lips
-a sting of reality-
where are you on some vacant mission
eye steadied down the sight
-the blow of fear-
the dust settles in your hair
a sneeze of revelation
-your dream is my nightmare-
you signed away the rights of decision
a contract for two years
-now you belong to them-
i've been screaming everynight
the image- of your body collapsed in the dirt
the sting- of your absence
the blow- of what could happen
while you're off chasing your dream
i belong to the nightmares
my hands recoil from the shot fired
