Soldier

When you came back I knew you'd have a story. You need someone to ease the pain of living life. You're like a soldier in the fray, seeking shelter From all the madness that you've seen raining down now. I know things change, your world has slipped away. I know things change, but you're living like a soldier Who's caught in the fray. Don't lose your faith, It's not so cold, It's not too late. When you were naive you were so invincible, And you laughed at anyone and anything that ever got in your way. But now the mirror shows the change and you don't see that You're sinking back into the crowd, an echo fading. I know things change, your world has slipped away. I know things change, but you're living like a soldier Who's caught in the fray. Don't lose your faith, It's not so cold, It's not too late And I never thought I'd see You living on your knees, A slave to some disease That holds you captive. And you can look inside of me But the answers that you seek And everything you need Is all inside you. I know things change, your world has slipped away. I know things change, but you're living like a soldier Who's caught in the fray. Don't lose your faith, 'cause it's not so cold, it's not too late. --- Soldier - The Goo Goo Dolls
