VERSE 1
You look at yourself in the mirror who is that man
The shadows of your face the lines are getting deeper
Sand in the soles of your shoes, stories that nobody knows
Hallowed out by the bombs, your brothers blood on your hands but your boots they carry on

CHORUS
This man of steel he sits and daydreams and thinks of home
These scars too real, forged in the desert unknown
Here now somehow, he finds the heart to love again
You know coming home is just the beginning

VERSE 2
You're in a nine to five just like it never happened
Broken glass in a bar next thing your pulse is racing
Can't get out of your head, faces of those that you left
Someone extends a helping hand, they hang on your every word but their eyes
Don't understand

BRIDGE
Oh march oh march my baby, so you don't turn to stone,
Oh march oh march my baby, march till you come home
X2

Stand for a day in his shoes
A man with everything to lose
Hallowed out by the bombs
Your brothers blood on your hands but your boots they carry on

CHORUS
