I haven't seen her in awhile
Heard her voice or seen that smile
So I'm staring at my phone
Thinking "maybe I should dial"

But I can't
Things aren't the same
I don't know when it went wrong
Or why things even changed

I hope you're doing well
Better than ever before
Life without you is hell
But I think it's time to close this door

And I hope that this can reach you
Just so you know
I'll never forget you
And how you made me grow

If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd fix all the broken
Keep us in our prime
With you gone, I've awoken
And realized the problems were all mine
But now we're over
Goodbye to cloud nine

I'm in a quiet library pondering
What would happen if I told her how I felt
I look around to see her wandering
If I tell her, she might make my heart melt
I don't want to go heart broken
I want my heart to sing
Love isn't as easy as finding a token
It's as hard as finding a ring

A soldier, on the verge of giving up
Once proud, arrogant, and war ready
Now torn, battered, and stuck
His aim no longer steady
And his voice no longer crisp
He was once a proud man!
But now, he feels as if he's only a wisp.

The war had taken its toll
The soldier had grown weary
he is no longer whole
And his eyes had become teary

He doesn't want to fight
It is a war he cannot win
The man who was once a soldier
Had now lost his thick skin

The woman he had loved
no longer feels the same
The war is over
And another soldier is left in shame
