Tell me, little soldier, why are you so scared?

You have nothing to fear from my side

I'll be waiting for you above the blue sky

I'm not the reason for your death

Only if he comes to join the rest of us

He will prove that he is brave enough

To be the one everyone has forgotten

And the one that no one wants to remember

Little soldier high up in the sky

Who gave him the right to tell you what's right?

He has the words, but not the courage

So he can come and face me

I've made my move

Come and face me

Come and prove

He sent you out there on your own

Why didn't you realized that something was wrong?

I don't understand how he can be so cold

And just leave the ones that he should have hold

He left you in the dark with no clue

And told you what he wanna make you do

Did he really think you would make it?

It was never in his intention that you should survive

Little soldier high up in the sky

Who gave him the right to tell you what's right?

He has the words, but not the courage

So he can come and face me

I've made my move

Come and face me

Come and prove

Little soldier high up in the sky

Who gave him the right to tell you what's right?

He has the words, but not the courage

So he can come and try to disgrace me

I've made my move

Come and fight

I swear to protect you
