Soldiers Lyrics

A meeting surely no mistake

A brief encounter all the same

You shared a truth on that first day

While I kept mine safely tucked away

Oh to peer behind the walls

I will lower mine if you do yours

But should we stand here so exposed

Just to give a chance to really get to know

I had a glimpse of a new world

One where all the casts were removed

We looked around, your eyes I found

And all our silly fights dissolved

Still I work to integrate

Fight my brain, fight my nerves to allow it

Oh this armour sure packs a heavy weight

And is so hard to peel away

Oh Could there be, soldiers of a different kind

Oh Could there be, soldiers of a different kind

Lead with our hearts

Despite the scars

And leave the weaponry behind

Oh let us be soldiers for a different time

You messaged when you left your place

But somehow still arrived delayed

When you came in you said it was so strange

You hit a red light on the way that wouldn't change

Would you believe me if I said

The universe oh it speaks its own language

First of all it whispers then it shouts

Seems to me it's calling your name now

Oh Will you be, a soldier of a different kind

Oh Will you be, a soldier of a different kind

Lead with our hearts

Despite the scars

And leave the weaponry behind

Oh let us be soldiers for a different time
