Maybe this was not a war that I was meant to win
Even the mighty drop when their weakness is pulled from within
Was I blinded by my faith?
Or deafened by the pain?
Maybe that is why I stayed on this battlefield
If you'd fight, I'd be your soldier
Cross enemy lines, I'd do that for ya
Held hostage by your lies, I didn't surrender
Yet you left behind your faithful soldier
You were a loaded gun, with your mind and trigger ready
I was an easy target, maybe that's why you took shots at me
I am not your stepping stone
I'm not yours, I am my own
It is time for this soldier to go back home
If you'd fight, I'd be your soldier
Cross enemy lines, I'd do that for ya
Held hostage by your lies, I didn't surrender
Yet you left behind your faithful soldier
And you stopped, and you stopped, and you stopped, and you stopped trying
And you stopped, and you stopped, and you stopped, and you stopped fighting
You gave up, you gave up, you gave up before the war was won
And I was left wondering "What have I been fighting for?"
If you'd fight, I'd be your soldier
Cross enemy lines, I'd do that for ya
If you'd fight, I'd be your soldier
Cross enemy lines, I'd do that for ya
Held hostage by your lies, I didn't surrender
Yet you left behind your faithful soldier
(Your soldier, oh your soldier)
(Your soldier)
