Soldier

Soldier:

Pull me close when I say goodbye
I'll keep my promises
A billion miles, still under the same sky
But baby my head's a mess
Oh where do I fit in if I can't feel
Alive in my own skin?
I'm still scared for your loneliness
It's hard not to feel like I don't exist

If I can't make it home
I hope you understand that you're not alone
And that you and I are worth fighting for
I'd lay my life down to put this back together
And I'll be your soldier
If I can't make it home
I hope you understand that I'll be yours forever

Deeper than the colors of our skin
Are the fighters that live within
All we've got - this time that we're given
Burning up minute by minute
Oh where do I fit in if I can't feel
Alive in my own skin?
I'm still scared for your loneliness
It's hard not to feel like I don't exist

If I can't make it home
I hope you understand that you're not alone
And that you and I are worth fighting for
I'd lay my life down to put this back together
And I'll be your soldier
If I can't make it home
I hope you understand that I'll be yours forever

In the night, through the satellites
I feel you all of the time
Even on the battle lines
You were on my mind
And I wish that I could pull you closer

If I can't make it home
I hope you understand that you're not alone
And that you and I are worth fighting for
I'd lay my life down to put this back together
And I'll be your soldier
I'll be your soldier
I'll be yours forever
