Soldier

Album: Breathe and Let Go Durasi: 4:11
[00:23.36]In a cold November morning fog
[00:26.05]That's when I heard the warning call
[00:28.39]Yea the sun fell down like a fountain falls
[00:30.93]As a darkness took the sky
[00:33.72]Through the trees I heard the wind sing out
[00:36.84]Something's coming I began to shout
[00:39.79]That's when I heard that terrible sound
[00:42.03]As the bombs destroyed the ground
[00:55.80]In the wake of the smoke and ash
[00:59.42]I found my brothers laying in the grass
[01:02.34]To erase these lives so fast
[01:04.98]What a shame it's this we choose
[01:07.88]I feel the anger deep inside
[01:10.66]It's revenge I cannot hide
[01:14.19]It's a natural sense of pride
[01:16.23]I'm just trying to stay alive
[01:31.07]He was trying to better their life
[01:33.46]Two young babies and a beautiful wife
[01:36.35]Left alone for the rest of their lives
[01:38.94]Now an angel in the sky
[01:42.05]They'll grow old always wondering why
[01:44.64]He wasn't there to tuck 'em in at night
[01:47.70]Too many good men lost the fight
[01:50.16]For nothing but our pride
[02:05.07]I feel dark inside and out
[02:07.42]I wanna cry but I'd rather shout
[02:10.09]The world around me is far too loud
[02:12.65]Every day brings painful news
[02:15.71]I've seen evil and I've seen pain
[02:18.64]Good men drop and fade away
[02:21.52]Never knowing who is here to stay
[02:23.87]Because war remains the same
[02:38.50]In the middle of the summer heat
[02:41.40]Night falls as I try to sleep
[02:44.19]Pleasant thoughts of my home back east
[02:46.53]Bring tears to my eyes
[02:49.93]Just then I heard the siren call
[02:52.59]I jumped up and felt my body fall
[02:55.36]At least the last thing I felt and saw
[02:58.04]Was my family in my mind
[03:12.30]He was trying to better their life
[03:15.29]Two young babies and a beautiful wife
[03:17.83]Left alone for the rest of their lives
[03:20.49]Now an angel in the sky
[03:23.55]They'll grow old always wondering why
[03:26.43]He wasn't there to tuck 'em in at night
[03:29.32]Too many good men lost the fight
[03:31.63]For nothing but our pride
[03:35.09]🎵
