Lyrics

I had to sit right down and sharpen my blade
'Cause I could see it was time for another great crusade
I had all the gear but no idea
I should have said "Guys, I'll sit this one out"
But the words stuck in my throat and stuck in my mind
The words I should have said, I just kept them in my head
So I tagged along 'cause I thought I might find
Some courage hiding in the corner of my mind
Then there was thunder and there was pain
I saw my best friend just disappear from view
Then I was hiding in a cellar, shaking like a wet dog
That's all a man like me could do
Then I was running and hiding and ducking and diving
Hearing the bullets snap around me
Then I was on my face in the turned-up dirt
And that's where the enemy found me
Three long years since I slept in my own bed
Three long years that have messed with my head
And all that time I was wishing that I'd said
"Guys, I'll sit this one out"
There was darkness and there was pain
I found myself in trouble again and again
I remember all those questions under that light
I was just a volunteer, I didn't have to fight
The words I should have said kept going round in my head
"Guys, I think I'll sit this one out"
