[ti:A Dead Man's Words] [ar:Queensryche] [al:American Soldier] [00:01.12]Queensryche - A Dead Man's Words [00:08.48] [00:12.56] [00:13.70]I trace what's left of my [00:17.30]cold steel...as it twitches. [00:25.88]Apply the tourniquet tight. [00:30.68]Savor the moment, [00:32.51]this might be my last sip of life. [00:49.37] [00:52.24]I see at least one hundred miles [00:57.84]Of shifting, stirring sand. [01:04.85]A forsaken man in this strangers' land. [01:11.49]They've left me for...dead. [01:17.63] [01:19.00]I'm so tired of feeling scared [01:25.46]but I've got to find a way. [01:29.84]I've got this gun in my hand, [01:33.94]blood on my tongue as I write [01:38.39]dead man's words. [01:44.41] [01:50.26]The word we hear is [01:54.11]there's one man down and he's alive. [02:03.69]They ask for volunteers. [02:07.21]I raise my hand high. [02:10.79]I'm sure he'd do the same for me. [02:16.61]It's three days through the desert heat [02:23.02]to save one man's life and [02:27.88]I don't even know his name. [02:29.57] [02:29.94]And I'm so tired and my thirst is strong. [02:36.83]I might not make it back alive. [02:41.82]But I've got my gun at my side. [02:44.97]There's just one fear I can't hide and it's [02:49.74]a dead man's words in the sand! [03:02.54]Out in the desert, so tired! [03:34.77] [03:35.26]How many days pass? [03:38.59]Hard to tel in the desert. [03:43.19]The wind says...nothing. [03:46.39]I move, the bullet bites, [03:50.42]infected to the bone. [03:53.85]Will it find its home...before me? [03:59.80] [04:00.57]I pray that you find me soon [04:06.79]before I slip away. [04:13.75] [04:14.26]I'm so tired but I've got to hang on. [04:20.29]I've just got to make it one more night. [04:25.23]I've got this gun in my hand. [04:29.21]I've got blood on my tongue. [04:33.31]One last time I write [04:36.24]dead man's words...out in the desert. [05:07.94]So tired! [05:45.57]
