Just a Man

I look into your eyes and I
 Think back to the son of mine
 You're as old as he was
 When I left for war
 Will these actions haunt my days?
 Every man I've slain
 Is the price I pay, endless pain
 Close your eyes
 And spare yourself the view
 How could I hurt you?
 I'm just a man
 Who's tryin' to go home
 Even after all the years away from what I've known
 I'm just a man
 Who's fighting for his life
 Deep down I would trade the world to see my son and wife
 I'm just a man

 But when does a comet become a meteor?
 When does a candle become a blaze?
 When does a man become a monster?
 When does a ripple become a tidal wave?
 When does the reason become the blame?
 When does a man become a monster?
 (When does a comet become a meteor?)
 (When does a candle become a blaze?)
 Forgive me
 (When does a man become a monster?)
 Forgive me
 (When does a man become a monster?)
 Forgive me
 I'm just a man
