pawn
i stand in the front lines defending those i care for
yet all i d is get destroyed to be forgotten in the end
i am just one person who.... who is expendable
there is no care if i am killed while doing what i do best
there is no voice to me and the one thing i cant say is "no"
its like i'm a puppet at the end of someones strings
i see those like me dead and only i care enough to say something
i don't want to be used but i don't know how to get out of it
i am just a soldier that is on the battlefield that i will die in
while the higher ups say that we are doing this for our freedom
yet we all know its a lie were doing this cause they want to live
they'd rather send in people like us to our graves then them
there are no tears for our deaths but those of our comrades
why cant we deny our orders... not even we know anymore...
