"And I can't seem to find my way home" is pretty self explanatory, a soldier not being able to return home. "The faces of people, I'll never see again", may mean meeting new people, whether it be other soldiers or civilians that you connected or build a special bond with, you'll more than likely never see again for whatever reason. "A million stories that made up a million shattered dreams" could imply soldiers who have lost their lives and can no longer have dreams, hopes, and ambitions of returning home. Days seem to go by quickly, and the "memories are shadows ink on the page" represent the fact that this soldier has been away from his family for so long that his memories are blurred and obscured, to the point that the letters he receives from his family is just "ink" on a piece of paper.Īll the places I've been and things I've seenĪ million stories that made up a million shattered dreamsīeing a soldier and traveling through a different country/countries and seeing or witnessing things other's who aren't in your position will never see or experience, whether it be good or bad experiences.

General CommentIn my opinion, I think this is through a soldier's point of view.
