Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wake to face the day
Grab this life and walk away
War is never done
Rub the patch and battle on
Make it go away
Please make it go away
[Verse 2]
Confusion
All sanity is now beyond me
Delusion
All sanity is but a memory
My life...
The war that never ends
[Verse 3]
Leave the battlefield
Yet its horrors never heal
Coming home from war
Pieces don't fit anymore
Make it go away
Please make it go away
[Verse 4]
Confusion
All sanity is now beyond me
Delusion
All sanity is but a memory
My life...
The war that never ends
[Verse 5]
Father please come home
Shell shocked all I've known
Father please come home
[Verse 6]
Label him a deadwood soldier now
Cast away and left to roam
Rapid is the road to sacrifice
Just takes longer to come home
[Verse 7]
Confusion
All sanity is now beyond me
Delusion
Crossfire ricochets inside me
Trapped in a memory forever
My life...
The war that never ends
Written by: James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich
