Soldiers

A meeting surely no mistake
A brief encounter all the same
You shared a truth on that first day
While I kept mine safely tucked away

Oh to peer behind the walls
I will lower mine if you do yours
But should we stand here so exposed
Just to give a chance to really get to know

I had a glimpse of a new world
One where all the casts were removed
We looked around, your eyes I found
And all our silly fights dissolved

Still I work to integrate
Fight my brain, fight my nerves to allow it
Oh this armour sure packs a heavy weight
And is so hard to peel away

Oh Could there be, soldiers of a different kind
Oh Could there be, soldiers of a different kind
Lead with our hearts
Despite the scars
And leave the weaponry behind
Oh let us be soldiers for a different time

You messaged when you left your place
But somehow still arrived delayed
When you came in you said it was so strange
You hit a red light on the way that wouldn't change

Would you believe me if I said
The universe oh it speaks its own language
First of all it whispers then it shouts
Seems to me it's calling your name now

Oh Will you be, a soldier of a different kind
Oh Will you be, a soldier of a different kind
Lead with our hearts
Despite the scars
And leave the weaponry behind
Oh let us be soldiers for a different time
