Good Soldier |
| Today, you don’t have to be a soldier |
| Don’t have to be a soldier, stand down |
| It’s okay to be as you were |
| Be as you were again |
| Is it a scheme? |
| Is it a vision? |
| Is it a dream? |
| Is it a nightmare? |
| Or is it a competition, and if it is, what if we don’t fight fair? |
| What’s bald in the morning, but in the evening has white hairs? |
| What’s the cause of Global Warming, and could it be these things right here? |
| I got an idea that might not reach anyone for another light year |
| Got a hit list and a cloud of witnesses, which is pricier? |
| Well my tears are mightier than my fears, so mighty Earth |
| Provides me hurt that I keep buried until I convert it to writing |
| I was wounded, I was injured, I was made to move to Denver |
| I was taken through a new adventure, paint stripped from its first fixture |
| I was placed in another picture, I was rushed to a new landscape |
| And ripped away from family scraped into a politician’s mistake |
| And what’s left of talents in chests beneath oceans |
| Welled up behind eyelids has yet to be salvaged |
| A world of emotions, a guess that it might be okay |
| That it could be alright, if expressed |
| Today, you don’t have to be a soldier |
| Don’t have to be a soldier, stand down |
| It’s okay to be as you were |
| Be as you were again |
| Am I a woman-raised man-machine damaging everything |
| I touch by not caring enough or too much? |
| Am I a far-flung fantasy setting free enmity |
| And making friends from enemies and bridges for the in-betweens? |
| For the highwayman on the low road |
| The tired back with a large load |
| The trials spanned 'til I found hope |
| And I found more when I slow-moed |
| Enough of the back to face front |
| Let those in the pack of the race run |
| I’m needing an evener pace, one |
| Too hasty makes mistakes |
| Can you carry a song as strong as your arms |
| Can bear that you keep from harm? |
| And it will be there when you go wrong |
| Make a heart from your bond, your treasure’s right here |
| And what’s left of talents in chests beneath oceans |
| Welled up behind eyelids has yet to be salvaged |
| A world of emotions, a guess that it might be okay |
| That it could be all right if expressed today |
| Today you don’t have to be a soldier |
| Don’t have to be a soldier, stand down |
| It’s okay to be as you were |
| Be as you were again |
