Soldiers

This injustice I cannot just let go
The world's becoming something I do not know
Where is the honor and the pride that bound us all?
From the inside out
We crumble and fall

We bled and we died just to
Give them protection
But in the end we were
Faced with rejection
Scattered, divided
Like a fallen house of cards
I still fight on
Old habits die hard

Look around
The world is burning
Look inside
Can you feel that yearning?
To be a fighter and to
Right these wrongs somehow
Evil walks among us and
We're not supposed to do a thing?
If we don't stand up
Then what will the future bring?
Like it or not, we must
Right these wrongs somehow
We are all soldiers now

I refuse to go quietly into the night
I'm locking on and now
I've got you in my sights
Try to take me down, you'll never get near me
But if you're innocent, you'll never need to fear me

I'm still watching over anyone defenseless
Call me a cynic
But I know this war is endless
We're gearing up to go back
One last time
Now we regroup
And return to the front line

Look around
The world is burning
Look inside
Can you feel that yearning?
To be a fighter and to
Right these wrongs somehow
Evil walks among us and
We're not supposed to do a thing?
If we don't stand up
Then what will the future bring?
Like it or not, we must
Right these wrongs somehow
We are all soldiers now

I am not a young man anymore
I question every day
Just what we're fighting for
I am not a young man anymore
I pray that I can once again
Be the leader I was before

Look around
The world is burning
Look inside
Can you feel that yearning?
To be a fighter and to
Right these wrongs somehow
I must right these wrongs somehow
Evil walks among us and
We're not supposed to do a thing?
If we don't stand up
Then what will the future bring?
Like it or not, we must
Right these wrongs somehow
We are all soldiers now
