Konflikt - Come Home lyrics

[Hook 1] When you come home I'll stop this When you come home I'll hide it good I'll never cry again When you (Listen up real good) Come home (Yeah) To me [Verse 1] This morning I woke up Wondering if our country really knows The extents of what our soldiers Do across the globe Every day that we get to wake up Safe it's thanks to those, fighting for us Plenty of stories; many will never be told I'm letting them know They're never alone Whenever they are alone At times I know we act ungrateful But in our hearts we know The sacrifices they pursue Like living so far from home And every single thing they do They never take for granted, no Each one's a son, a brother, cousin Father, uncle too Some young and old But from their point of view That's nothing new If you can't process the dangers Or the years of strength in training Then I guess what you see on TV You claim is entertainment What about the daughter getting teased At school for the scarf that she wore Ignoring the fact that her family's broke as it is And her father's at war With a mother that's torn And a brother at law school Trying to support the fort, working hard for them all So every night she finds herself saying [Hook 2] When you come home I'll stop this When you come home I'll hide it good I'll never cry again When you come home (Yeah) To me [Verse 2] It's crazy, really How we complain about our nine-to-fives When we got soldiers overseas That fight to try survive And it's guys like these with pride Who our country should idolise So tell your little boy his father's a hero Every time he cries Give it up for the motivation Those who know their stationed In a city where they it ain't safe And would rather be at home But no complaining We could never understand The weeks of no communication To the outside world Or the magnitude of any situation What about the ones that don't come back? What about the wife that mopes in black? What about the kid so young When the mum tries to explain it They don't react Think about the knock on the door When the soldier awaits and you know what for When he lowers his hat, she's gonna tell her kids that They'll never get to see their dad no more Like I'm letting you know You're never alone Whenever you are alone I hoped I never see the day I has to let you go I'm not okay, but every day I'm getting better though Today's a stepping stone But, still right now, she finds her self saying [Outro] I saw you again I knew just where you'd be I'll stop this real soon When you're back safe with me (But 'til then, I'll be singing this song) When you come home I'll stop this When you come home I'll hide it good I'll never cry again When you come home to me
