lyrics

I got a letter from my mom

Said half the country thinks it's wrong

But either way

We'll be right here when you come home

She said my family's doing fine

We miss you so much all the time

And all we do

Is count the days 'till you come home

Between the lines I know she's scared

I wrote her back with what needs to be said

I'm alright

It's my fight

Everyday

For my life

So back home

Tell 'em not

To leave us out

Here alone

I'm alright

It's my fight

Everyday

For my life

Yeah

I'm not sure who's right or wrong

Doesn't matter when your best friend is gone

I watched him die

Now Tell me why

Cause I don't know

We put our faith in what our leaders say

It's the reason that I'm here today

We vote em' in

Now we need to win

So I come home

I can't change a country's views

But we all win

Or we all lose

I'm alright

It's my fight

Everyday

For my life

So back home

Tell 'em not

To leave us out

Here alone

I'm alright

It's my fight

Everyday

For my life

You wanna tell me what I should do

Oh yeah

They wanna tell me what I should do

I just want to be able to say

I did the best I could

Just want a greater good

I did the best I could

Just want The greater good

Oh yea

I got a letter from my mom

Said half the country thinks it's wrong

But either way

We'll be right here when you come home

I'm alright

It's my fight

Everyday

For my life

I'm alright

It's my fight

Everyday

For my life

So back home

Tell 'em not

To leave us out

Here alone

I'm alright

It's my fight

So say a prayer

for me tonight

Yeah

You know I do

Yeah

You know I do

Yeah

You know I do

Back home
