Fort Hood Approaching Nirvana (Ft. Veela)

[Verse 1]
It's been us, makin' it through all our lives
And I, can't help but think of how cruel it would have been
Without you by my side
I can feel how we've changed
I can feel who we've become
How we're numb to the pain
What we've seen and all we've done
I'm on the floor letting no screams out
Somehow, it doesn't hurt anymore

[Verse 2]
We grew close as children, orphans under a roof
And they spied on us
We had stolen textbooks, hidden in our rooms
We had had enough
We ran for dreamland, down the rainy roads
A man came to us
In the night, he brought us home

[Verse 3]
Soon, four of us were tucked in beds with new sheets
And I sipped warm water as I listened to him speak
"You beautiful children are the war at its worst
You've been on the base all your lives
And me, well I run things here, you're safe by my side
I'm alone now since I lost my wife"
We saved his life, I'm sure of it old and grey
We gave him the love he lost and became his family
He gave us our education we were thirsty for more
And when the call came in we were all taken off guard
