Sudden Soldier
I live in airports
So, I've seen all sorts
I see them come and go
They're wearing camo
Their faces aglow
They're heading off I know
These things you're holding inside
All your life you've been on a ride
It's time to carry on your shoulders
Now you walk out of the dark
And soon you'll make your mark
Everybody rise for the sudden soldier
The same old story
For hope and glory
You're in good company
It's all a mystery
Rewriting history
Some things we'll never know
These things you're holding inside
All your life you've been on a ride
It's time to carry on your shoulders
Now you walk out of the dark
And soon you'll make your mark
Everybody rise for the sudden soldier
And all at once there is a silence
But still, there's thunder in the air
These things you're holding inside
All your life you've been on a ride
It's time to carry on your shoulders (everybody rise)
Now you walk out of the dark
And soon you'll make your mark
Everybody rise for the sudden soldier (everybody rise)
These things you're holding inside
All your life you've been on a ride
It's time to carry on your shoulders (everybody rise)
Now you walk out of the dark
And soon you'll make your mark
Everybody rise for the sudden
