From metal shells to wedding bells...

From black to white you have shown me a way through
Everything is what you make it and the pages have already been written
From rags to riches be open with your heart
I'll steal your desires from the burning fires and you won't get bitten

I can't replace the tears falling on your face
You're at a crossroads and I stood tall for so long
I'm a soldier, I won't hurt, and you won't burn
Hold hands, steal a smile
for you I'll be strong

From the metal shells to wedding bells it all seems like a dream
Will I wake or continue to the beat of the firing line
Heavy feet with a heart full for you, can it become real
Scorching sun gazing down, the future I see is bright
I'll wait for you there as the sky fills a darkened hole
I'll wait for you there until you bring the light
I sit on no regrets and with faith I bled
I'll put my stories to bed and wait for you there
One light I see and I'll wait
Sleep well tonight

I can't replace the tears falling on your face
You're at a crossroads and I stood tall for so long
I'm a soldier, I won't hurt, and you won't burn
Hold hands steal a smile
for you I'll be strong
