Hope weighs heavy on his heart
As the silent soldier walks home,
His hands aren't bloodied by battles
And the scars aren't on for show
Many battles he may have won
Still many more he has lost
Fighting on for a losing cause
For deeper still lies the cost
Fighting on without know why
He lay his life on the line
While his world around him burned
He thought all at home was fine
As he returned home to a burnt nothing
His silently held in his tears
[Finally] His hope had given up on him,
And his heart lay bare all his fears
As he cradled his dead infant in his arm
When I was out saving your hopes and dreams
You couldn't even save my family from harm
The silent soldier drew on his gun
And plunged his life into an eternal abyss
While an ungreatful country couldn't save his home
For his unborn son he couldn't even kiss...
