lyrics

I’m the archetype of a soldier
My story’s often told
My parents needed money
So to the army I was sold

I serve my masters well
Spreading fear across the land
Don’t know how many children
Met their deaths at my hand

I’m the willing tool of leaders
Who care only for power
But I’m a human just like you
I want to cherish every hour

I want to spend my days in peace
And feel a lover’s hand
But if your lover’s in my way
I’ll shoot him where he stands

I’m the archetype of a soldier
My story’s often told
My parents needed money
So to the army I was sold

Every minute of this life, like you
I’ve felt love and pain
But when I have my orders
I'll steal your life away
