Have you ever seen a soldier
hugging his girl tight
have you ever seen a soldier
as from his eyes escapes the light

Have you ever seen a soldier
having been forced to fight
have you ever seen a soldier
trying to survive with all his might

A soldier cries
a soldier dies
have you seen a soldier
ever asking WHY???

He doesn't want to die
he doesn't want people to hurt
He doesn't want to feel the dirt
He doesn't want to smell the burnt

And then, just when its finally over
bodies spread out, death comes to hover
just then, one last wish on his mind
"please god, don't make me leave Her behind..."

But it was not god
who sent him to fight
it was not god
who took out his light

It was not god
who made sure
that his girl
he'll no longer hug tight

Not god, but us
only we are to blame
he now lies under the grass
tell me now, do you feel the shame???
