The Lonely Soldier Lyrics

I don't wanna go home

I'm a lonely soldier

Yeah, lonely soldier, looking over his shoulder

Running from the madness, trying hard to control it

But everyone around him, they making him lose his focus

Running out of options, I think that it's time you show us

What you made of, what, what, what you capable of

We in a time where people really value hate over love

And even then, this type of love, they claim it ain't really love

It's more adjacent to lust, they got no patience for us

Living in a world where our own self esteems are so weak

Try to hide it, but you translucent, you ain't discreet

People seeking validation through a f**king screen

Spending time procrastinating, trust me, it ain't what it seems

Oooooh, I don't wanna go home

Oooooh, I'm a lonely soldier

The lonely soldier, looking over his shoulder

Got his gun up out the holster, I think he's gonna expose ya

I swear that boy is ready to shoot, so don't come closer

(Pop, pop, pop)

I thought I warned ya

Some would call him arrogant, but I would say he's passionate

I, I think he's carrying the weight of the embarrassment

He puts a mask upon his face to cover all the bandages

He's bruised and battered, can't combat the feeling of abandonment

He did this s**t by accident, his conscience playing devil's advocate

And they don't realize that he's suffering, they can't imagine it

He took the people that loved him and turned his back on them

To try and find an equilibrium, but he can't balance it

Oooooh, I don't wanna go home

Oooooh, I'm a lonely soldier
