and i know it's not for me
as much as i'd like it to be
eleven soldiers couldn't bring you back to me
to bless my heart again
to make me see
i hold my ground for it may pass
i pray this feeling cannot last
eleven soldiers try but no one ever sees
their efforts go unknown
their hearts grow cold
everyone knows what you're thinking
it's just a side of me you never saw
eleven soldiers are dying
eleven soldiers are crying
in their futility they carry on
their hopeless venture
insecurity song
efforts, though noble, cannot mend us
i lie to myself
maybe it's not lying i just hope for the best
a long time coming
a longer time to finally leave
you got it all now
i gave it all to you
