oh the battleground's littered
and the cold light is coming
and i can't help wond'ring
and you can't say why
oh i am the only
soldier worth fighting
and you keep on wand'ring
away from the sky
here now, we are not wise enough
and we go on wanting
but the battle is killing us
and the kitchen is haunted
and the hill where i found you
burying your dead
has followed us here
and lives in your head
oh i'm not a prophet
and i can't read your signs
and you keep on wand'ring
away from the sky
oh the day is not long enough
and the night will be falling
and there's no use resisting
when the allies are calling
oh the battleground's littered
and the cold light is coming
and i can't help wond'ring
and you won't say why
oh i am the only
soldier worth fighting
and you keep on wand'ring
away from the sky
