| Hot lights across his face
| Luces calientes en su rostro
|
| They told him he was just a disgrace
| Le dijeron que solo era una desgracia
|
| Stripped down like a frightened child
| Desnudo como un niño asustado
|
| A shadow stood before him
| Una sombra se paró frente a él
|
| He thought he saw a smile
| Creyó ver una sonrisa
|
| Guilty of nothing more than fear
| Culpable de nada más que el miedo
|
| It was the dogs of war that sent him here
| Fueron los perros de guerra los que lo enviaron aquí.
|
| Caught across enemy lines
| Atrapado a través de las líneas enemigas
|
| Shot in the back
| Disparo en la espalda
|
| Now he’s running out of time
| Ahora se está quedando sin tiempo
|
| They all said they loved him
| Todos dijeron que lo amaban.
|
| But where were they all now
| Pero, ¿dónde estaban todos ahora?
|
| Thinking about his hometown
| Pensando en su ciudad natal
|
| Back in New York City
| De vuelta en la ciudad de Nueva York
|
| A slap across his face
| Una bofetada en la cara
|
| Brings him back to this painful place
| Lo trae de vuelta a este lugar doloroso
|
| He would not talk God save his soul
| Él no hablaría Dios salve su alma
|
| They took him out and beat him
| Lo sacaron y lo golpearon
|
| His mind felt cold
| Su mente se sentía fría
|
| A change takes place
| Se produce un cambio
|
| It makes you feel numb
| Te hace sentir entumecido
|
| Realizing you’re just a man
| Darte cuenta de que eres solo un hombre
|
| Can make your soul want to run
| Puede hacer que tu alma quiera correr
|
| Standing in the firing line
| De pie en la línea de fuego
|
| The smoke fills his lungs one last time
| El humo llena sus pulmones por última vez
|
| And with his last breath he cries out
| Y con su último aliento grita
|
| Dear God what have I done
| Querido Dios, ¿qué he hecho?
|
| A shot rings out | Suena un disparo |
