Fighting for something I believed was right Something I was willing to die for I wouldn't give up whether dark or light I stood there a soldier
Until I found out that nothing was true The whole thing a lie This thing I believed in through and through That I would've put down my life
It tore me apart left me shredded in wait For a death to come sweep me away But I picked up my head and followed a fate That would leave me here to stay
It was hard at first But sorely I moved on It could've been worse Every dusk and dawn
But a soldier fights even if the orders change Even if it seems impossible Even if you lost your way And I'm a soldier through and through To the bone and I made it too
