final transmission - street dogs lyrics
he had just turned nineteen yesterday
wanted to be a school teacher someday
came from a small and modest town
had never before traveled abroad
he signed on the promise of a college fund
pop and mom begged him to stay at home
the last time they saw him was at an airport
he hugged his distraught mother a final time
he went abroad to serve when he was only nineteen
reality caught up with him, stole a heart full of dreams
he’s never gonna get a chance to chase all those hopes
lost them all amidst this war and smoke
can you hear the sound of youth negated?
watch on tv names are taken
mother, mother
my final transmission
paris island was plain h-ll on earth
got gunny yelling at him, “better prove your worth”
moved on to baghdad about six months on
caught an ied today, now he is gone
he went abroad to serve when he was only nineteen
reality caught up with him, stole a heart full of dreams
he’s never gonna get a chance to chase all those hopes
lost them all amidst this war and smoke
can you hear the sound of youth negated?
watch on tv names are taken
mother, mother
my final transmission
dad and mom i am your only loving son
hid a written final transmission under my helmet
love you both in heart and mind
a better set of parents no boy could ever find
weep for me and say thy prayers
remember me through all your years
only got to serve for six months on and
if you’re reading this i have p-ssed and gone
so i harbor my final request
a letter in my memory please send
off to the president and all his men
begging him with others to bring the troops back home
he’s never gonna get a chance to chase all those hopes
lost them all amidst the war and smoke
can you hear the sound of youth negated?
watch on tv names are taken
he’s never gonna get a chance to chase all those hopes
lost them all amidst this war and smoke
can you hear the sound of youth negated?
why are all those young lives taken?
mother, mother
my final transmission
