Ambush

Every ten years objective time
I'm aging only a month
If you're alive, returning according to schedule
I'm twenty-eight when you arrive
Hurry! I don't care if you're 30
Hurry! I don't care if you're old
I never ever wanted another
If I can't be your lover, I want to be your nurse

I cannot recall
The reason that I came here for
I don't know when it started
I don't know when it ends
I don't see any sense in this
My mind has been erased
So I can get along with this

Lost in time and space, what am I fighting for?
Seriously damaged but I don't let it show
Still there is capacity as long as there is faith
Pump-gun trigger pushed, we're being ambushed

No possible defence in the midst of the crossfire
As long as I am conscious there'll be no way to stop me
Got no ammo left but the power of my fists
A pain inside my chest just leaves me defenceless

I cannot recall
The reason that I came here for
I don't know when it started
I don't know when it ends
I don't see any sense in this
My mind has been erased
So I can get along with this

I feel disintegrated but still I am alive
Don't ask me, 'cause I don't know, the way that I survived
I feel the medic's fingers tickling my guts
The burning in my stomach is trying to drive me nuts

Can't see no reason in the things that I have done
It happens to be war, it's a war that can't be won
It's time to quit but they won't let you go
You're far too important for things that you already know

I cannot recall
The reason that I came here for
I don't know when it started
I don't know when it ends
I don't see any sense in this
My mind has been erased
So I can get along with this
