Story Behind The Song
We came up with the concept after watching a few documentaries about the War in Iraq. I think it relates to not only our own troops but the innocent citizens who live there and are caught in the collateral damage.

Lyrics
In a time of War,
chaos broke out
and the sky are filled with
smoke clouds,
the result of bombs no doubt
innocent citizens
with no house
the streets are filled with
heads and guns
and the dead ones keep still
as i walk thru the shadows
right thru the heart of the battle
the scene is vulgar
i am trying to hide from the soldiers
i'm a loner
i cant till its over, my goal is closer get to the Bridge
the city is dying in violence
my grade a homework assignment
skip town get out of this mess
out of the stress
i gotta get to the bridge
and escape in a War Zone
and missiles that can rip thru your
torso, no one is gonna stop
my mission, i am of with the quickness
i gotta get to the bridge
