mercenary man

mama take a look at your boy

face a man without a soul

he is standing in the doorway

i'll be gone

before the night is over

i have to go

i have to run to the border

lost my way i run in desperation

lost the words i lost communication

all i see is death beneath my window

all i need is to heal my broken mind

i will catch my own wounded shadow

just before we leave it all behind

mama keep the faith it's alright

your boy's a mercenary man

a soldier made of steel

a shotgun rings; the wind is calling my name

fields of gold beneath a blood red sky

lost my way i run in desperation

lost the words i lost communication

all i see is death beneath my window

all i need is to heal my broken mind

i will catch my own wounded shadow

just before we leave it all behind

just before we leave it all behind
