The Men Before Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Another step farther away from you
And I know, I've got a job to do
All the pain, it's a game
It's the life I chose
The life I love
I do it for you
Dedicated since the day I took my first breath
And here I am in the face of death
And as the world comes crashing down around me
I hear your voice, and I remember why
I'm here, and I'll always be
On the frontline for my family
So don't fear, you can sleep in peace
I will live up to the men before, before me
Every minute that goes by
I get the feeling that the end is near
I don't even know if I will live or die
Either way I did my duty sincere
(I'm coming home)
I'm here, and I'll always be
On the frontline for my family
So don't fear, you can sleep in peace
I will live up to the men before, before me
I'm here, and I'll always be
On the frontline for my family
So don't fear, you can sleep in peace
I will live up to the men before, before me
