The day is ended and you’re not even dressed
It’s taken all you have to just get out of bed
The war has kept you on your knees and you confess
“I am tired, there’s nothing left.”
When all you had was given in the raging fight
You fear your life has been wasted here in this cold night
Empty and alone you cry those precious tears
“Warrior child, I’m still here.”
Forsaken, not my warrior child.
Abandoned, never will I forget you
My child, I love you so
And someday you’ll finally know
But until then
Please be strong.
You’ve carried soldiers on your back to get them here
The wounded broken ones you fought for all those years
You fed them all you have and now you’re weak and faint
Loved you are, in heaven’s gates.
Forsaken, not my warrior child.
Abandoned, never will I forget you
My child, I love you so
And someday you’ll finally know
But until then
Would you please be strong?
Forsaken, not my warrior child.
Abandoned, never will I forget you
My child, I love you so
And someday you’ll finally know
But until then
Please be strong.
