lyrics

my mother told me that her prayers were answered
she's blessed to have me back in one piece
but peace is just another word that means nothing to me
a shell of some old memory

oh ptsd
you have taken all the better parts of me
and left a man that I don;t know and I don't want to be
one the politicians don't want nobody to see
with their idle talk of victory

first time I ever saw my daddy crying
was when I stepped off of that plane
but tearful reunions just don't happen every day
and none of them can see the change

I wonder if they're better off without me
I should have come home in a bag
instead of a shadow and reminders of pain
21 guns and a flag

oh ptsd
you have taken all the better parts of me
and left a man that I don't know and I don't want to be
one the politicians don't want nobody to see
with their idle talk of victory

let me be
I don't want your sympathy
