Soldier

When you came back
 I knew you'd have a story
 You need someone
 To ease the pain of living life
 You're like a soldier in the fray
 Seeking shelter
 From all the madness
 That you've seen raining down now
 I know things change
 Your world has slipped away
 I know things change
 But you're living like a soldier
 Who's caught in the fray
 Don't lose your faith
 It's not so cold
 It's not too late
 When you were naive
 You were so invincible
 And you laughed at anyone
 And anything that ever got in your way
 Yeah, yeah
 But now the mirror shows the change
 And you don't see that
 You're sinking back into the crowd
 An echo fading
 I know things change
 Your world has slipped away
 I know things change
 But you're living like a soldier
 Who's caught in the fray
 Don't lose your faith
 It's not so cold
 And it's not too late
 And I never thought I'd see
 You living on your knees
 A slave to some disease
 That holds you captive
 And you can look inside of me
 But the answers that you seek
 And everything you need
 Is all inside you
 I know things change
 Your world has slipped away
 I know things change
 But you're living like a soldier
 Who's caught in the fray
 Don't lose your faith
 'Cause it's not so cold
 It's not too late
