Johnny went to fight the war
came back a different man
Most likely to succeed
Now he does the best he can
He said, I bled, I cried, I died a bit each day
At night I prayed my soul, the lord to take away

Fall to your knees and say your prayers
Take all your memories and nightmares
From in your head and make them go
Away, away, away'a

Billy Gene Homecoming Queen
was loved by all the guys
Wrapped her car around a pole
Now she's scarred and paralyzed
She said in bed she lies, she cries through every day
At night she prays her god, her soul to take away

Fall to your knees and say your prayers
Take all your memories and nightmares
From in your head and make them go
Away, away, away'a

Oh... What... Why...Why won't someone help
What...Why...Someone wake me up
What...Why...Someone wake me up
What...Why...I can't seem to wake
I can't seem to wake. I can't seem to wake

Cut my loss. Tap my vein
Pour my misery down the drain
If I should wake before I die
I'll know I'm back in Hell

Katie was just nine years old
When she stayed with Uncle Joe
Stripped her of her innocence
She was too scared to say no
Ashamed, she blamed herself
And withdrew from the world
Though years have past she's still
That frightened little girl

Fall to your knees and say your prayers
Take all your memories and nightmares
From in your head and make them go
Away, away, away'a
