Soldier |
| The sky has no end tonight |
| Clear view beyond the stars |
| Daylight in the early dawn |
| There’s no-one left unscarred |
| Sand is drying up the tears |
| Burnt shells soaking up the sun |
| The generals laughing with no fear |
| Because their work is done |
| Liquid gold was in their sights |
| Paid with blood by infantry |
| Giant statues ripped and torn |
| All engineered so brilliantly |
| Back home it’s the Wild West |
| Children sleeping in their beds |
| Grown men that passed the test |
| Now free to go and wed |
| I’m through with the fighting |
| All the terror and the pain |
| I’ve seen the lightning |
| Felt the thunder and the rain |
| The silver birds come screaming |
| Painting blood right through the skies |
| Still I worry, and I wonder |
| Wonder why |
| They tell us it’s OK to kill |
| They’re just vermin in the sand |
| Don’t worry 'bout the blood you spill |
| You’ll be forgiven by God’s hand |
| The images etched behind their eyes |
| Will never fade away |
| Eternal buildings turned to dust |
| In just one day |
