a child warrior....
I’m just a child warrior
Walking the streets of soldiery,
Skipping ‘cross land mines.
I take my place along the front lines.
Use fire and revolution
Protest religious persecution
In a grown-up world.
Ran away from home to be a martyr.
Front-line fighting.
Front-line dying.
Daddy walked this road a long time ago…
I’m just a child warrior
Fighting the future restoration.
A child warrior,
Adding to the devastation.
I’m a military volunteer.
I don’t miss school much,
It’s more exciting here
In the army of liberation.
All I can see is confrontation,
Faction rivalry destroys my world;
There’s a pain in my head.
I’m just a child warrior
Going home without victory.
I play hit and run warfare
Running from this dead-end nightmare.
Troubles all around me shouting,
Shouting…
Dear goddess,
Please let me sleep tonight.
