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
