pamela edwards mcclafferty - soldiers, not forgot lyrics

Loading...

we were called on in the name of peace +
to go to war + so it would cease –

soldiers, not forgot
soldiers, not forgot

some of us lived –
some of us died +
no matter how –
we fought blindly with pride
we’ve seen war –
things to forget+
we’ve even carried in our hearts+
what we regret+
life’s mask doesn’t hide+
the faces who died +
nor the echoes heard in our mind’s inside

soldiers, not forgot
soldiers, not forgot

the brutality of it all –
lying with the dead
faces unknown –
crying wounds embed +
don’t ask for explanations –
don’t dig up our graves +
don’t entice temptation
we can’t be saved
h+ll is our keeper –
heaven sets us free +
we’re caught between tormenting memories and freedom’s ring

in peace we soldiers –
live like other men +
yet, a hint, a sound –

fans memory’s embers again

in war, we are ordered –
to summon the past
to keep us alive –
to k!ll and outlast
no matter the when –
memories return +

the questions begin
and we feel the burn
we’re more at home –
on the battlefield +
our memories wield –
they won’t let us heal +

we fight to the death
we fight to live +
that’s our h+ll –
for others to live
that’s what we give

soldiers not forgot
soldiers not forgot
