Suicide Soldier

lyrics

Suicide Soldier
Carried such a heavy load
It was so hard to follow
That long dark dirty road
Many things are forgotten
In a cold and bloody fight
Now you've lost your last battle
With the ghosts in the night
Ending it was easy
With a bullet to the brain
Couldn't live on as half a man
Couldn't live with the pain

Suicide Soldier
You took your life away from me

They killed your religion
The plundered your soul
They left you with nothing
Spinning out of control
You saw the enemy fall
Through the site of your gun
They were all at peace now
But you still had to run
Couldn't rest in your bed 'cause in your head
The war raged on
How could you keep on living
When the life you had was gone?

Suicide Soldier
You took your life away from me

You climbed the highest mountain
Looked out across the sea
Said there's no place in this big old world
For a broken man like me
You couldn't save your brother
You watched him as he bled
Did you think you'd find forgiveness
In a bullet to the head?
Your woman and your children
They watched your spirit die
Will your kids grow up believing
What you did was right?

Suicide Soldier
You took your life away from me
