A rock/electronic track about bomb disposal, war and religion in Afghanistan and the West.

lyrics

The long walk begins and I am all alone again
Crunching earth under foot my breaths only friend
Glimpsing people peering from the broken window frames
Friend or foe I hope to keep them safe today

I don't know when I go what is in for me
Unlike those who are sure and have it in for me
I don't know if we can win spreading democracy
but I've done wrong and this is close to spirituality

I know the maker by the traces on the circuitry
fear banished by my training but theres something wrong
My armour hardens as the blast wave hurls me off my feet
A roar then black I know this bomb was meant for me

I don't know when I go what is in for me
Unlike those who are sure and have it in for me
I don't know if we can win spreading democracy
I've done wrong and this is close to spirituality
