Lyrics to Missing In Action

( R. Pierce / J. K. / F. Rose / F. Morisette )



Well he lost his mind behind enemy lines,

Always running, always under fire

Taken prisoner in a land of dreams

That was a nightmare in disguise

Never been so scared, so filled with pain,

His life passed before his eyes

No one thought that he would be the one

To surrender to all their lies



That's why you're



Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you go

(You're) Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you be

Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you go, no

Missing in action

Don't you know that I will never let you go



He was taken by surprise, he was paralyzed,

Losing all his will to live

He told them all everything he knew,

Till there was nothing more left to give

Locked alone in an empty room,

His plans are finally made

In the glaring light of a single flame,

Reality begins to fade



That's why you're



Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you go

(You're) Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you be

Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you go, no

Missing in action

Don't you know that I will never let you go



The kiss of death lingers on his lips,

He's headed for an early grave

Cause the end of a needle and a rusty spoon

Are the only life he has to crave

I can see he's a casualty

Of a freedom that's never free

He's a missing person in a sea of dreams,

Dreams not meant to be



That's why you're



Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you go

(You're) Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you be

Missing in action

Don't you know that I won't let you go, no

Missing in action

Don't you know that I will never let you go
