They said it was duty
I just remember a letter
Seventeen still figuring out what next
But the tracks were already laid
Didn't ask for this didn't plan for war
Just seventeen with dreams not ready for a uniform
The station felt like pages torn from history's cruel hand
Steam and silence thick like smoke across the land
Mom's brave smile couldn't hold back the past
We were leaving home but not for where it felt like
This ain't a ride its life itself in motion
Goodbyes fade fast when the wheels hits the steel
The train rocked forward but time just froze
Each mile stretching wider than anyone knows
Uniforms gives orders like they'd done this all before
In that carriage eyes fixed low
What do they make of boys they barely know
We were leaving home but not for where it felt like
This ain't a ride its life itself in motion
Goodbyes fade fast when the wheels hits the steel
We didn't know then what would shape our skin
Only that the world we knew was gone before it could begin
The whistle blew and so did the past
Into steam and smoke into the cast
