The Warrior is a Child
Lately I’ve been winning battles left and right
But even winners can get wounded in the fight
People say that I’m amazing, strong beyond my years
But they don’t see inside of me, I’m hiding all the tears
They don’t know
That I go running home when I fall down
They don’t know
Who picks me up when no-one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
‘Cause deep inside this armor
The warrior is a child
Unafraid because His armor is the best
But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
People say that I’m amazing, never face retreat
But they don’t see the enemies that lay me at His feet
And they don’t know
That I go running home when I fall down
They don’t know
Who picks me up when no-one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
‘Cause deep inside this armor
The warrior is a child
And they don’t know
That I go running home when I fall down
They don’t know
Who picks me up when no-one is around
I drop my sword and look up for a smile
‘Cause deep inside this armor
Deep inside this armor
Deep inside this armor
The warrior is a child
