Muledose - The Surge Lyrics

Dressed as a soldier there's our little boy
Stands at attention and then he's deployed
I see you in dreams of when you were young
My boy soldier my only son
Dear mom this is not how I'd thought it'd be
My ranking commander is a kid just like me
But we'll meet in dreams if I can find sleep
Your proud soldier arrives in a week
Those bombs took him away
I only hope he was sleeping
Now each day starts the same way
With less belief and more grieving
I still remember when you first arrived
Cradled my mother wrapped in dads pride
But now you come home draped in a flag
One more soldier not coming back
Those bombs took him away
I only hope he was sleeping
Now each day starts the same way
With less belief and more grieving
Send our young and brave
To an early grave
This is not the way
Obey now lay
Goodnight sleep tight my babe
