Though the soldier leads the road
Yet his soul is dying
And he casts his fears away
As he starts denying
Well inside he feels the heartache
Doesn't break him down
And all those that he's defying
Is he here for Gods sake

Waiting to seize the day
The truth will show him who's been lying
Throwing his faith away
‘Cause lonely is the rose
Oh don't you leave me now
Inside his heart and soul is cryin'
He's lost in the where and how
‘Cause lonely is the rose

Through the dark he sees the sun
That still shines on his face
With no war or battle won
It goes round and round
Taken on an endless journey
That's lead by a demon
Just intensifies his yearning
To get out of this place

Waiting to seize the day
The truth will show him who's been lying
Throwing his faith away
‘Cause lonely is the rose
Oh don't you leave me now
Inside his heart and soul is cryin'
He's lost in the where and how
‘Cause lonely is the rose

Lonely is the rose
Lonely is the rose
Searching for who's been lying

Repeat chorus
