[Verse 1]

Keep your helmet, keep your life, son

Just a flesh wound, here's your rifle

Crawling up the beaches now

"Sir, I think he's bleeding out"

And some things you just can't speak about

[Chorus]

With you I serve, with you I fall down, down

Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out

[Verse 2]

Something med school did not cover

Someone's daughter, someone's mother

Holds your hand through plastic now

"Doc, I think she's crashing out"

And some things you just can't speak about

[Bridge]

Only twenty minutes to sleep

But you dream of some epiphany

Just one single glimpse of relief

To make some sense of what you've seen

[Chorus]

With you I serve, with you I fall down, down (Down)

Watch you breathe in, watch you breathing out, out

With you I serve (With you I serve), with you I fall down (Down), down (Down)

Watch you breathe in (Watch you breathe in), watch you breathing out (Out), out (Out)

[Outro]

Only twenty minutes to sleep

But you dream of some epiphany

Just one single glimpse of relief

To make some sense of what you've seen
