Soldier
Straight No Chaser Lyrics

Where did all the people go?
People are scared by the darkness, and so they have left.

They got scared when the lights went low.
The fear of the unknown and the darkness is too much for most people to handle.

I'll get you through it nice and slow, When the world's spinning out of control.
I'll be there for you and help you navigate even when the world feels like it's falling apart.

Afraid of what they might lose
People are afraid to take risks or to try new things because they might fail and lose something important.

Might get scraped or they might get bruised.
People are afraid to get hurt or feel pain, so they avoid taking risks.

You could beg them, what's the use?
Even if you try to convince people to take risks, the fear of loss and pain is often too strong for them to change their minds.

That's why it's called a moment of truth
This is the moment when people have to decide whether they will take risks and face their fears or walk away.

I'll get it if you need it,
I'm always here to offer help and support when you need it.

I'll search if you don't see it,
If you can't find what you need, I'll do everything in my power to help you find it.

You're thirsty, I'll be rain,
If you're in need of something, I'll do everything I can to provide it for you.

You get hurt, I'll take your pain.
If you're hurting or in pain, I'll be there for you to help you through it.

I know you don't believe it,
I understand that you might not believe me.

But I said it and I still mean it,
But I promise that I mean every word that I say.

When you heard what I told you,
When you heard me say that I will always be there for you.

When you get worried I'll be your soldier.
When you're feeling scared or worried, I'll be there to protect and take care of you.

Funny when times get hard,
It's ironic how difficult times often affect people in strange ways.

At the last moment when you're supposed to charge,
In moments of crisis or difficulty, people often freeze instead of taking action.

Always on the longest yard,
These moments of crisis often feel like we're at the very end of our ropes.

Oh, they feel their feet getting cold.
This fear often causes people to feel physically frozen and unable to move.

Hiding here, hiding there,
People try to avoid facing their fears by hiding or avoiding difficult situations.

Find them underneath the stairs,
People will go to great lengths to hide or avoid situations that make them uncomfortable.

People hiding everywhere,
This fear is pervasive and can affect everyone, no matter where they are or what their situation is.

Trying to be still like a stone.
People try to be motionless and still in order to avoid drawing attention to themselves and risking failure or pain.

My aim is so true,
I am committed to helping you and being there for you no matter what happens.

I wanna show you,
I want to prove to you that I am trustworthy and that I will always be there for you.

I'll try forever,
I will keep trying to be there for you and help you as long as you need me to.

I'm never gonna say "surrender".
I will never give up on you or abandon you, no matter how difficult things get.

I'll be your soldier
I will always be there for you, standing by your side and protecting you.

Well I'll be, oh I'll be your soldier
I promise that no matter what happens, I will always be there to support you and help you through hard times.

I'll be your soldier
You can count on me to always be there for you and fight for you.

I'll be your soldier...
No matter what happens, I will always be here for you.
