Lonely soldier go home

Lonely but never alone

Good eyes see nothing to shoot

Good feet feel good giving up good boots

So ask your father how'd you fall

Ask your father how'd you fall

Like a leaf sitting on the ground

Good for nothing except kicking around

She died with her hands stretched out

She died with a hungry mouth

She died with her mind full of doubt

And thoughts of weakening

So may your river never dry

And may your mouth never lie

And may you be satisfied to never know why

Sometimes someone just wants to die

So where'd you get those cuts in your hand

I thought I told you about playing in the sand

There's always someone careless with glass

There's always questions you don't want to ask

She died with her hands stretched out

She died with a hungry mouth

She died with her mind full of doubt

And thoughts of weakening

So may your river never dry

And may your mouth never lie

And may you be satisfied to never know why

Sometimes someone just wants to die

So lonely soldier go home

Lonely but never alone

Good eyes see nothing to shoot

Good feet feel good giving up good boots
