Soldiers

Tell the world that I still burn
Tell them all that I'm still breathing
Tell your friends that I'm all right
Tell your friends that I am Jesus Christ
If it makes them feel like dancing

Tonight the earth is getting thinner
And the sky just won't hold still
Will I outlive another winter?
Tell your friends that I will

Lose myself like a child in the snow
Gentle steps so I won't fall below
Through the ground and this velvet sky
Somewhere else your armies pass me by

Now soldiers fall
And soldiers call
Your armies will never contain me
Tonight I shine
Tonight is mine
Your armies will never contain me

Come on
Come on

It's a natural progression
Into ourselves as we become
This natural infection
Away from fear we're leading everyone
Into their fathers' corners, yeah
Corners, yeah

I see the insects closing in
Take a weapon we can kill
All the reasons no one wins
And tell the world that I will

Lose myself like a child in the snow
Gentle steps so I won't fall below
Through the ground and this velvet sky
Somewhere else your armies pass right by

Now soldiers fall
And soldiers call
Your armies will never contain me
Tonight I shine
Tonight is mine
Your armies will never contain me

Yeah
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, come on
Fall, fall, fall, fall

Now soldiers fall
And those soldiers crawl
And your armies will never touch me
'Cause tonight I shine
And this night is mine
Your armies will never contain me

Let the soldiers cry
The soldiers die
Your armies just cannot touch me
'Cause tonight I burn
Tonight I learn
The soldiers will never contain me
