The answer is lost, God knows the cost
The bodies a mother, a sister, a brother
You hold dearly to every last word
Wonderin if your mother was hurt
The war on terror breeds terror at homes
As a family's terrified that they'll never be a family again
Was it written in stone
When will we go home
I hear your voice on the phone
And it sounds like you're gonna break
How much more can you take
Don't make this day my last
Sergeant says son it'll go by fast
Don't mention the word volunteer
I needed money for bills and now I'm stuck over here
But your brave, you're a hero, I know you'll do one more tour
Well I'm sure, I'll be back again Black Sin
Was it written in stone
When will we go home
I hear your voice on the phone
And it sounds like you're gonna break
How much more can you take
Honey I'm safe it's all cool
There's nothing anybody can do
To take me away from you
But if you only knew what I've done, where I've been
Black Sin
Was it written in stone
When will we go home
I hear your voice on the phone
And it sounds like you're gonna break
How much more can you take
