Sarah Bettens - Soldiers song

Mother, I'm fine, everything's ok
It doesn't help to worry anyway
I'll be back before you know
And you will be so proud to know
I was strong, I didn't let you down

Mother, I lied, this is not for me
I've seen so many people die
and somehow I'm still here
I don't know why I should be
The lucky one who gets to see
Another morning trough these tired eyes

Mother, I'm dying nothing more to give
My body breathes but I don't want to live
And the bullet that suppose to go
Inside some poor son's back I hope it
Blows up in my face
so I can say Mother, I died, and you won't have to know
There was nothing left but anger in my soul
I never found my truth out there
I never knew why we were there
I lost my youth but no one seem to care

Mother, I'm fine, everything's ok
It doesn't help to miss me anyway
I'll be in your heart you know
And you will be so proud to know
I was strong, I didn't let you down

I didn't let you down
I didn't let you down
I didn't let you down
