Lyrics:

The king’s taken back the throne
The useless seed is sown
Then they say they’re cutting off the phone
We'll tell them we’re not home

No place to hide
You’re fighting as a solider on their side
You’re still a soldier in your minds
But nothing's on the line

Say it’s money that we need
As if there were only mouths to feed
And knowing no matter what you say
There’s some debts you’ll never pay

Working for the church while your family dies
They take what they give you and they keep it inside
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan
Or go at it alone

I can taste the fear
Lift me up and take me out of here
Don’t want to fight, don’t want to die
Just want to hear you cry

Who’s going to throw the very first stone?
Oh, who's going to reset the bone?
Walking with your head in a sling
Want to hear the soldier sing

Working for the church while my family dies
Your little baby sister’s going lose her mind
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan
We’ll go at it alone

I can taste you fear
It's going to lift you up and take you out of here
And the bone shall never heal
And I cannot make you kneel

We can’t find you now
But they're going to get their money back somehow
And when you finally disappear
Will they say you were never here?

You're working for the church while your life falls apart
Singing, Hallelujah, with the fear in your heart
Every spark of friendship and love
Will die without a home

Hear the soldier groan
We’ll go at it alone

Hear the soldier groan
We'll go at it alone
