Well he lost his mind behind enemy lines
Always running, always under fire
Taken prisoner in a land of dreams
That was a nightmare in disguise
Never been so scared, so filled with pain
His life passed before his eyes
No one thought that he would be the one
To surrender to all their lies

That's why you're
Missing in action
Don't you know that I won't let you go
(You're) Missing in action
Don't you know that I won't let you be
Missing in action
Don't you know that I won't let you go, no
Missing in action
Don't you know that I will never let you go

He was taken by surprise, he was paralyzed
Losing all his will to live
He told them all everything he knew
Till there was nothing more left to give
Locked alone in an empty room
His plans are finally made
In the glaring light of a single flame
Reality begins to fade
