Soldier

((Demo Video))

 

 

Ｓｏｌｄｉｅｒ

 

Flying overhead, tunneling below

Government supplies never running low

Soldier, you’re a soldier

You’re so far away, no one knows you

 

Another war begins, grab that submachine

Kill your fellow man

It’s all become routine

Soldier, you’re a soldier

You’re so far away, no one knows you

 

You will be there when those rockets fall

You will be there to spite them all

You will be there when those rockets fall

Soldier, you will still stand tall

 

Will you wait for me? Will you still be mine?

Will you pray for me, every day and night?

Soldier, I’m a soldier

Because another war begins

Grab that submachine

Kill your fellow man, it’s all become routine

Soldier, I’m a soldier

I’m so far away, so far

 

You will be there when those rockets fall

You will be there to spite them all

You will be there when those rockets fall

Soldier you will still stand tall

Oh soldier

You will be there when those rockets fall

You will be there to spite them all

You will be there when those rockets fall

Soldier you will still stand tall

You will be there in spite of it all

Soldier, you will still stand tall

Ｓｏｌｄｉｅｒ

Song Context:

‘Soldier’ is a powerful tribute to the brave individuals caught in the machinery of war. It delves into the emotional and physical toll of serving on the front lines, grappling with the distance from loved ones, and the routine of conflict that becomes all too familiar.

 

This song is not just a reflection on the sacrifices made by soldiers but also a poignant reminder of all the lives placed in the hands of their governments–soldier or prisoner. It’s a testament to resilience, and the enduring spirit of those who stand tall, even as the world around them falls.
