the lights go out all around me, one last candle to keep out the night and then the darkness surrounds me, i know i'm alive but i feel like i've died and all that's left is to accept that it's over, my dreams ran like sand through the fists that i made, i try to keep warm but i just grow colder, i feel like i'm slipping away

john (to his soldiers): its time for operation co

martin bedell: operation co

my whole world is the pain inside me, the best i can do is just get through the day, when life before is only a memory, i wonder why god lets me walk through this place and though i can't understand why this happened, i know that i will when i look back someday and see how you've
