Dear Larisa

My dear Larisa
The bombs began to fall today
Inside the screaming of the city
The air itself began to tear
Today

My dear Larisa
An officer shot three men today
He said he caught them running
Only one of them had a name
But not today

And I couldn't for the worthless life of me tell you the friends I came here with
Buried beneath the rubble, all those faceless wasted kids
I'm not even sure what I'm doing here in this hell of melting skin
Because I can't tell where the Motherland ends and you begin

My dear Larisa
The winter bites deeper each day
But we've got our backs to the water
Give my love to our daughter
I know I'll hold her in my arms one day

For I can't for the worthless life of me picture the shining of her eyes
The blood and smoke have bleached all of the beauty from my mind
Please forgive me for my words, they'll soon be ashes to the wind
Because I can't tell where the Motherland ends and you begin

Oh my dear Larisa
Ran out of luck today
I know this won't reach you
And now I'm running of out things
To say
