I met this girl when I was about 5 years old
and she knew me ever since I could remember...
On the news today another catastrophe
In the paper, another story of war...
For everything they say...
we must still fight and defend...
He holds his head up tall and high
Pride, courage and determination within his eyes...
Our soldiers die on foreign land
Beseeched by words of hollow truce...
One Word holds together millions.
Black, White, All colors...
Aren't we all worth it?
Send our soldiers overseas, they'll keep on...
I came unhurt in this war; But in a war again
The war of lonely pain...
A husband sent off to war
fighting for his country...
Alone we walk the streets at night
Wondering when they'll stop the fight...
Red buses line the street
as far as the eye can see...
The Soldier
