Lyrics:

A soldier alone
Defending the border life
His eyes on the run
Looking for a place to hide
And he's wondering why
Tears falling, he fades in the darkness
Waiting for dawn to ease the pain, oh
Desperate, desperate night
Desperate, desperate night
He'll wait for the light
With blood on his hands
The memories are all too clear
To realize the truth
Never makes it disappear
Does anyone hear?
Death like a thief
Comes without a warning
Heroes die before the dawn, oh
Desperate, desperate night
Desperate, desperate night
He'll wait for the light
Desperate, desperate night
Desperate, desperate night
He'll wait for the light
Desperate night
