A young lady leaves her mother With no one to love her To protect her from the world And I have seen the monsters That will haunt her That will tear her all apart And at her gravestone We will remember Just where we were When we knew she would go And I still remember the day that we left her And thats when she said that she knows How it goes And we sang [Chorus x2] Your day will come, your day will come, your day will come And no matter what they say It wont matter if you pray or if you sin Cause in the end Its all the same A young man becomes a soldier He isnt much older Than a boy and thats a shame They will lead him into battle Hand him medals when he comes home rearranged And at the sayso Of a man with a halo He will obey he will fall into place Remembered by ribbons but never forgiven Hell shoulder the bulk of the blame What a shame And well sing If I only had a dollar For every horror That befalls my fellow man Id never work another hour But Id grow sour From the guilt and bitterness The luck on the draw will Determine the fallen And everyone else will relax and move on But what will you do when They come looking for you friend? I hope that youre brave, and youre strong Through it all [Chorus]
