Soldier

by Anthony burke   Mar 18, 2005


I carry a gun and have killed men before,
It's not very fun to walk through that door,
To be accused, beaten and abused,
To see life fade between your eyes,
Not knowing whether you'll survive,

Fear surrounds you like darkness in the night,
Anger makes you want to fight,
They attacked us then, it's time they learned,
For the mistake they made they shall burn,
Although pain and anger cloud my sight,
I will not be afraid to fight,

I'll give my life for the USA,
I'm very proud to say,
And through my blood and sacrifice,
Let me save at least one life,
For that one life, Just might turn out to win the fight,
Bury me beside my brothers,
Who fought and died with each other,
And all of them are proud to say,
They gave there life to the USA.
