Letters Home From The Garden Of Stone Lyrics - Love, War, And The Ghost Of Whitey Ford - Everlast

Sittin' restless under the moonlight 

I know I'm getting ready to kill 

They say we're going in with the day light 

I don't want to but I will 

Cause I won't know the man that kills me 

And I don't know these men I kill 

I thank God for my salvation 

Wash away the blood I spill 

I try not to think about my family 

Cause it's a little too much to take 

Out here I got me and I got my buddy 

We can't afford even one mistake 

I started writing on dirty card boards, 

It's the only paper I could find 

Tell everyone I got their letters, 

Tell everyone I'm doing fine 

Late at night when I can dream I, 

I think about life back in the world 

I miss you and dad, I miss sister Sarah 

I miss my wife and my baby girl 

Pray for me, pray for my soul Ma 

Pray for me and all my sins 

They say I got a job to do now 

I'll be back when it finally ends 

Do you think I should be fighting? 

Ma, are you proud are you ashamed? 

Really I'm trying to do the right thing 

I hope my Government can say the same thing 

Cause I won't know the man that kills me 

And I don't know these men I kill 

We all wind upon the same side 

Cause ain't none of us doin' God's Will
