[Mekong Delta, J. Jenkins]



Screams, lonely in the night

Deadly torture, just remember

War captivity

Fellows on your side 

Blood - spurting out his neck

While his head is rolling to the ground

And his dying corpse's

vincing at my feet 

And the torturer said to me

The next one could be you

And I told him all the things

My comrades planned to do 

Screams, lonely in my room

Wake up in cold sweat like every night

I can't get these things out of my head 

Mad, I got nearly mad

With this lack of sleep I can't get clear

Help me in my pain

I am shell shocked 

Every night it's just the same

I can't rest my soul

I'm the one who is to blame

This nightmare patrol
