Got the call last night
Another brother gone
Left behind his whole world
A young wife and a four-year-old son
He’d been fighting demons
Locked inside his mind
Wish he’d reached out to someone
Instead of running out of time
It’s getting harder to keep up with the names
Of the ones we couldn’t save
We came back home from war
But not all of us came back the same
We’ve all been in that struggle
Alone in bed at night
Trying hard to hold it in
Still putting up a fight
Thinking they’d be better off
Like it makes some kind of sense
But that’s just the demons talking
Trying to drag you to the edge
It’s never too late to speak up
Man, if only we had known
We’d have dropped everything
To make sure you weren’t alone
You don’t have to fight that battle
With no one by your side
You’ve got brothers and sisters here
To help you through the night
Any hour, any day
We’ve got your back for real
You can lean on us, no shame in that
We’re here to help you heal
The news hit fast, like wildfire
None of us believed it was true
Still trying to make some sense of it
But what’s done is done, and we miss you
We’ve all been in that struggle
Alone in bed at night
Trying hard to hold it in
Still putting up a fight
Thinking they’d be better off
Like it makes some kind of sense
But that’s just the demons talking
Trying to drag you to the edge
When your boy grows old enough
To ask about his dad
We’ll tell him all the stories
The good times and the bad
He needs to know it wasn’t him
It wasn’t anything he did
You were just hurting deep inside
Fighting demons that you hid
