"Soldiers" Lyrics

Tell the world that I still burn
tell the world that i'm still breathing
tell your friends that I'm alright
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 the armies pass me by

Now soldiers call
and soldiers fall
your armies will never contain me
tonight I shine
tonight is mine
the soldiers 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
corners
yeah

I see the insects closing in
take a weapon we can kill
every reason no one wins
and 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 the armies pass right by

now soldiers fall
and soldiers call
your armies will never contain me
tonight I shine
tonight is mine
and 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
their 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
