A soldier in a war

They learn how to kill
Against their own will
Scared and sick they go to war
Youll be haunted of what you saw
Scared faces and a wound so raw

On the surface youre strong
You wont cry because you think its wrong
But how can anyone make you see
That youre not the only one, who wants to flee

You say that youre not afraid to die
But dont you deny
Cos the thought of being tortured to death
Makes us all out of breath

The wound inside will never heal
But its too late, you made a deal
To fall from grace
In such a place

Your heart is sore
You shake to the core
Trying to be cool
Youre such a fool
You knew you couldnt handle it
But you didnt have a choice
Youve lost your life
And you have lost your voice

Ghosts from the past
They will forever last

They didnt know what you saw
Cos you were a soldier in a war
