Sinning Soldiers

A proud poet and patriot
You loved the sesh
And your mystery grew
In those letters from Long Kesh
Been to your home
The Four Winds
And there you were felt
I can't even imagine
The cards you were dealt

Oh we are living soldiers
And we, we were born to lead
Oh we are sinning soldiers
Amidst our sinning minds
We find peace

My boy Red in Shawshank
He gave me advice
He said
"Some birds aren't meant to be caged"
Because their wings
Are much too bright
And when they fly away
You realize

That we are living soldiers
And we, we were born to lead
Oh we are sinning soldiers
Amidst our sinning minds
We find peace
Amidst our sinning minds
We find peace

Before Dad died
He had a glint in his eye
I'm not saying
He wanted to die
But it's like he'd lived
And lived and lived
And survived
And so deeply reflected
On this beautiful life

Oh we are living soldiers
And we, we were born to lead
Oh we are sinning soldiers
Amidst our sinning minds
We find peace
Amidst our sinning minds
We find peace
Amidst our sinning minds
We find peace
