The safety is off and you're in his sights One second left alive and though So cautious, afraid And you know they were never prepared To ask "when will the dying stop" Don't cry for me, i'm just a soldier on the line I will soon be home with my family In a jar on the fireplace And i've made my peace with this Moment in time and space It would be so easy to give up an die The screaming is haunting your dreams But that's only when you have the time to stop and sleep No backing up no giving up Follow commands from the country that you came from Don't cry for me, i'm just a soldier on the line I will soon be home with my family In a jar on the fireplace And i've made my peace with this Moment in time and space It would be so easy to give up an die Rest now, close your eyes and breathe Your last sleep now time moves to a stop Don't cry for me, i'm just a soldier on the line I will soon be home
