Man Down! Lyrics - American Soldier - Queensryche

Hey, I'm okay 

Another day, another nightmare begins 

And the sound that I hear 

Is the relentless fire in my head 

Shifting gear in the driver's seat 

As the finger of God signals me 

And this concrete bloodline carries me 

Never thought I'd bring the war back home 

I'm a number, I'm a casualty of war 

For a cause I never had the chance 

Didn't understand the score 

They told me that I'd be okay 

Assume civilian life, live day to day 

But when I think about it my hands still shake 

And I know what I am 

Man Down!

I'm in overdrive, barely alive 

As long as I keep moving, I'm all right 

Was that a muzzle flash from my past 

Or just my mind misfiring? 

With one eye in the mirror I see 

The "Cavalry of God" coming up on me 

Bumper to bumper, traveling fast 

Waving Satan over 

I'm a number, I'm a casualty of war 

For a cause I never had the chance 

Didn't understand the score 

They told me that I'd be okay 

Assume civilian life, live day to day 

But when I think about it my hands still shake 

And I know what I am 

Oh, I know what I am

Shifting gear in the driver's seat 

As the finger of God signals me 

And this concrete bloodline carries me 

Never thought I'd bring the war back home 

I'm a number, I'm a casualty of war 

For a cause I never had the chance 

Didn't understand the score 

They told me that I'd be okay 

Assume civilian life, live day to day 

But when I think about it my hands still shake 

And I know what I am 

Man Down! 

I'm a number, I'm a casualty of war 

For a cause I never had the chance 

Didn't understand the score 

They told me that I'd be okay 

Assume civilian life, live day to day 

But when I think about it my hands still shake 

And I know what I am 

Man Down! 

I'm a casualty of war 

(Man Down!)
