lyrics

SAVING THE SOLIDER

He came out of nowhere
He fathered the rain
Once was a lonely man
Emerging to live and love again

Bestowed on believers
the gifts of laboured conversations
Knowledge born to him
now passed among the eager
Willing to be free
of what they never had
contended to agree

He gathered the rainbows
and showed them the way
Building his fortress with
the bodies of the friends he made

Hellbound for glory
The gifts be granted raised on loyalties
Triumphant of the cause
but in the dark
he lies and wonders what he’s fighting for

Saving the soldier
The battle is over

He calls out the warning
He finds the words and speaks his bravery
Protecting all that fought the war
and all the ones that would begin to follow him

Saving the soldier
He opened the wound
The battle is over now
Mortality comes around too soon
