Lone Soldier - Nathan Grisdale

This soldier is leaving for the war

Leaving his kids and his wife feeling torn

He knows one day he will make them proud

He says goodbye for what seems the last time

He steps on the plane

Takes one glance back

He knows one day he'll be fighting in Iraq

He arrives at camp heart beating out his chest

He thinks positive takes a deep breath

Gun shots

Man down, man down

Time freezes theres no sound

The soldiers brothers body on the ground

All his friends gather round

Gun shots

Man down, man down

Time freezes theres no sound

The soldiers brothers body on the ground

Rest in peace, rest in peace, rest in peace

You did your country proud

Before he knows it, he's on the frontline

Fighting for his country

Saving men all the time

He deserves more respect for everything he does

Soldiers should never be misunderstood

Shots in the air it feels like a nigtmare

His brother gets hit by a bullet

Help is there anyody out there

He's holding his brother telling him he'll be okay

He's promising he will live to see another day

It's alright, it's okay

Keep your eyes open don't go away

Gun shots

Man down, man down

Time freezes theres no sound

The soldiers brothers body on the ground

All his friends gather round

Gun shots

Man down, man down

Time freezes theres no sound

The soldiers brothers body on the ground

Rest in peace, rest in peace, rest in peace

You did your country proud

Ohhhhhh

He's destroyed

Lost a close brother

He's gotta make a phone call

To tell his kids, wife and mother

Tell them how he saved my life

Provided me wth cover

And the last words that left his mouth were

"Tell my wife I love her"

Rest in peace, rest in peace, rest in peace

You did our country proud
