Soldier song

Hanging to a dying sunbeam
Quietly singing a soldier song
Will the womb of the Earth remember us?
Why do the bells ring louder at dusk?

A thousand incisions already cut the inside of my head
And I feel like I'm walking the march of death
Saint Elysium near me, I can hear it whisper
"I always knew you were a fucking soldier"

I bear in my soul all the ruthless pain inflicted
But this scarlet sun is so beautiful
If only you could see the beauty of this sorrow
And my ripped heart and my ghost

Black church watching over us
In this burning horizon
The light makes my eyes cry
I may be dying, but I had the force to fight...
