Here we are, ready to go.
Prepared our minds to kill.
Ravaged our soul from ill.

I'm tired of fighting.
Tired of the bloodshed.
Tired of living.
Tired of breathing.

We suit ourselves up fo the battle field.
Bur your bullets, it will not yield.
See our fiend face to face.
A win or loose is the case.

I'm tired of fighting.
Tired of the bloodshed.
Tired of living.
Tired of breathing.

Another day we awake.
Another life is at stake.
We are toy soldiers off to war.
Fighting for the life that you tore.

I'm tired of fighting for this lost cause.
Tired of the bloodshed released from my arms.
Tired of living this wicked life.
Tired of breathing this intoxicated air. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 13 [informant] => bopeep [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

We're toy soldiers off to war.
Here we are, ready to go.
Prepared our minds to kill.
Ravaged our soul from ill.

I'm tired of fighting.
Tired of the bloodshed.
Tired of living.
Tired of breathing.

We suit ourselves up fo the battle field.
Bur your bullets, it will not yield.
See our fiend face to face.
A win or loose is the case.

I'm tired of fighting.
Tired of the bloodshed.
Tired of living.
Tired of breathing.

Another day we awake.
Another life is at stake.
We are toy soldiers off to war.
Fighting for the life that you tore.

I'm tired of fighting for this lost cause.
Tired of the bloodshed released from my arms.
Tired of living this wicked life.
Tired of breathing this intoxicated air.
