Fortunes Of War
Iron Maiden Song Lyrics

Artist: Iron Maiden
Album: The X-Factor (1995)

After the war and now that they've sent us homeward
I can't help but feel that I'm on my own
No one can see just what this conflict has done to
The minds of the man who are on their way home.

I'm scared for life but it's not my flesh that's wounded
So how can I face the torment alone
The vivid scenes and all the recurring nightmares
I lay there and sweat until it gets light...

People say 'don't worry'
Say that time's a perfect healer
That the nightmares they will come to pass
Can't hear what they're saying
I am living in my own world
And I'm feeling trance like all the time.

I hear voices in my head
Could I really be going crazy
In the night the visions seem so real
Do you care if you live or die
When you laugh are you really crying
You're not sure what's real anymore.

Fortunes of war
Fortunes of war no pain anymore.

Sometimes I wake
I feel that my spirit's broken
I wonder if I've the strenght... to carry on.
