Cobra Lyrics by Bill Sutton

Shake the Dust Off

0

The war is over and I'm home
Warrior no longer, and I'm home
But they look at me as if I were the Devil on the roam
And the Devil has no business coming home

Lasers in my fingers for the war
Metal in my body for the war
More weapons than a single man has ever been before
And I've sworn I'll never use them anymore

They'd praise me as a hero if I'd died
They'd grieve and they would miss me if I'd died
But when I pass, they shy away, their smiling faces lie
Their smiles reflect the terror in their eyes

They blame me for the blood that I have spilled
They blame me for the blood I'll never spill
They made me what I am and they are frightened of me still
For they know that they created me to kill

The war is over and I'm home
Warrior no longer, and I'm home
But they look at me as if I were the Devil on the roam
And the Devil has no business coming home
