TIRED SOLDIER
(Sherri Mullen Copyright ©2005)
While I am here
This burden I bear
No compromising
In war all is fair
Awake in the night
In this bed I lay
Invisible demons
That won't go away from
(CHORUS)
Here inside my weary soul
Why can't I just sleep
Fill me with a sense of hope
Give me something I can hold on to
Raising my gun
A life I must take
I try to feel nothing
Can not hesitate
Pulling the trigger
I hit my mark
my heart is heavy
As I lie in the dark
(REPEAT CHORUS)
One step to the left
Could be my last
Did not see it coming
Caught in the blast
While I reflect
I think of my life
I long for my child
I cry for my wife from
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Chaos is vast
But freedom runs deep
I stand to protect it
So others can sleep
In peace
