I'm down on my knees again A call for my repentance The war has taken over me I beg for the forgiveness The bullets ricochet uh I hear 'em when I sleep now The blood is on my hands Lord From man, woman, and child I'm a soldier from my country But a slave unto my gun The screams to echo louder God, what have I become? I pledge my allegiance I left my family, a new born baby To slay the enemy, the struggle for power The lust, the fantasy I trusted America, she took my sanity Winds of change rolling in Take your love back again I your fool, Amen Just a bowl for your violin You played me You made me, your violin She looks at her reflection Eyes black and blue She told them she would leave him She said she was through He took her from a small town Showed her the big city life He promised her the world Then he made her his wife But he runs around town He's a cheater and a beater She's sleeping with the enemy But no one believes her A diamond green, a glass of whiskey The bottle of pain pills open and empty She left a letter "to hell I send thee" He brought home flowers, ashamed and guilty Too late Winds of change rolling in Take your love back again I your fool, Amen Just a bowl for your violin You played me You made me, your violin Uh, you was like a rag I've been washed up and dragged through the mud like a thief From all the beefs and my love, take it up, take a down Took a left, took a right, there's no one to be found To explain to me why Why it was me that was brought to the edge of the cliff 'Cause this is not fair but why should you care? The choices I've made of mine but I swear that all can not be the fault of just me I've tried to maintain my wants and my needs To work and not see the changes I've strived for A better life for my family I would die for Taking away everything from me And that's why more Tell me to make a decision in front of five doors As I'm praying, I'm saying 'Why lord?' Send me to a war without a sword I'll fight and I'll fight more I'll travel along road 'Cause I'm just a violin My life is another cord You played me 'Cause I'm just a violin My life is another cord You made me, your violin You played me You made me, your violin
