Текст песни Eddy (Why Don't You Put Your Gun Down?) - Wendy McNeill

What are these words that are surrounding me
I swear the seagrass is talking to me
It speaks my name so lovingly
I've heard this song before
Like stars in the night
Their voices soft and light
The twinkle started slowly shifting to a roar
It was the call of soldiers
Was the call of pain
It weakened his defences
Calling out his name
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
A flash of light and a burst of flame
He relived the battlefield again
He shook as memories filtered into him
His orders, open fire
Don't talk to me of mercy
Justice is my aim
For every one I kill
I'll do it in her name
Oh God, I showed no mercy
Justice never came
Revenge could not revive her
And now their blood is my shame
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
I fought for so many reasons
I fight for so many reasons
Why don't you put your gun down
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
Through drowning lips we prayed for miracles
'Cause twenty is just too young to have to go
Now we are prisoners of the sea
Reliving birth through battle like a dream
Our first source of destruction
Vengeance and a gun
We all lost someone Eddy
All had come undone
But when you saw us dying
Something in you snapped
Although we are the fallen
You're the one whose trapped
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
Eddy, why don't you put your gun down
