Who You Calling Lucky?

 

Thirty-five years of haunting thoughts just ain’t right

Rolling over and screaming out loud in pure fright

Hating the fact it has to happen almost every night

The living or dead all came back using the same flight

 

Who you calling lucky for ever spending days like I have done

Who you calling lucky when mothers can’t recognize their own son

Who you calling lucky having fought a war nobody can say they won

Who you calling lucky when staring eyes can’t see the miles I have run

 

 

Ohhh I’m not happy with the thoughts I’ve been chosen to endure

So many horrors in my mind; seems the dead have found the only cure

Widening scars that will always continue to bleed that’s for sure

Longing to find that answer from which there will be some closure

 

Who you calling lucky just take a close look you will see

Who you calling lucky because staying alive sure ain’t free

Who you calling lucky when this life is upside down for me

Who you calling lucky not knowing what the end will be.
