A Soldier’s Song Lyrics by Clare Means

0

You tell your story without a flinch
Your body doesn't move an inch
As you talk about being shot at
As if we're all familiar with that
A slight limp on a strong man
That wasn't part of your plan
In the desert you left your soul
Spirit fallen in the enemy's hole
Running among the big humvees
You got ammo knocking at your knees
This isn't how they said it would be
When they recruited me
He was a fine man in a dapper suit
Desperate for a new recruit
Promises, glory and money
Exotic land, bright and sunny
But all I see is this ammo knocking at my knees
Get me away from this hellhole please
Exotic promises, you kill and shoot
Fine men in bloody suits
In the desert you left your soul
Spirit fallen in the enemy's hole
In the desert you left your soul
Spirit fallen in the enemy's hole
You came home to your new wife
But you couldn't keep her in your life
She up and left you took the baby too
Now you see them once in a blue moon
You can't seem to hold a job down
You've tried everyone in town
But your night is filled with nightmares
Of still men with blank stares
In the desert you left your soul
Spirit fallen in the enemy's hole
In the desert you left your soul
