Soliloquy of a Soldier
Folder:
songs 1st verse
The war is getting thick
every day is rain.
Blood raining down on my face
companions dropping around me like flies.
If I'm next to die I dont care.
The war may be wrong but we're in it for the right reason.(I think)
My mind is numbed
I couldn't feel if I tried.
The only way I'm still pushing is by body over mind.
Flashes
clips of my life running through my head
jolting my body and heart into rythm like an AED.
visions of a soft face rubbing mine.
--"I love you."--
Light brown eyes
melting my souls weak outer layer and replacing it.
--"where are you?"--
Sweet heart I'm so sorry!
I hold my breath waiting for the next clip.
Infantile innocent smile,
my son it will be a while.
I have to fight!
This pathetic vesicle for my mind is tiring, straining, dying.
Forgive me if I don't make.........
Chorus
Momma I won't be home for christmas
ths year.
The hole we dug is getting to deep.
Kiss my son help him to sleep.
Tuck him in tell him one day we'll meet again.
Forget me not
because I only remember you.
2nd verse
The ground is flooded with corpses.
The wade through this swamp of death is getting harder to swim.
I have to make it!!
Not for me but for you.
Bullets flying
people dying
screaming for their mothers.
Which leads me to believe
when your about to die your innocent again like a child.
More flashes!
My father teaching me to ride a bike
there by myside ready to catch me if I fall.
Why?!!
Why can't he catch me when I die?!!
In all selfishness senselessness
I don't want to die in this loneliness.
I see light.
Finally I'm out.
The sun beams in my eyes
suddenly BAM!!
Lights out
I see my wife and kid.
Good bye I'll never see you again.
One last tear for the lake of corpses.
Chorus#2
Momma I wont be home for christmas
again.
I joined my friends and now I sleep
and though my eyes will never pry
I will wait until you die.
Don't forget to remember
I love you..
