My Heart is a Soldier

I fight to make you stronger
to make you love your life
I fight to show you purpose
to keep you satisfied
I fight to make you happy
I want to heal your wound
I fight forever for you
I ache when we’re apart

I'm fighting for us my heart is a soldier
I'm killing myself, my heart is a soldier
marching to die
I'm fighting for us my heart is a soldier
I'm killing myself, my heart is a soldier
marching to die

I fight to stay together
to bring us eye to eye
I fight to speak you language
to keep you by my side
I fight to make it easy
I push to give it time
I fight a losing battle
I bleed to stay alive

I'm fighting for us my heart is a soldier
I'm killing myself, my heart is a soldier
marching to die
I'm fighting for us my heart is a soldier
I'm killing myself, my heart is a soldier
marching to die

am I twisting everything
it’s hard to tell when all i see
is temporarily between
the way it shouldn’t, shouldn’t be

I'm fighting for us my heart is a soldier
I'm killing myself, my heart is a soldier
marching to die
I'm fighting for us my heart is a soldier
I'm killing myself, my heart is a soldier
marching to die

my heart’s a soldier
marching to die
my heart’s a soldier
buried alive
my heart’s a soldier
marching to die
marching to die
marching to die
