Lyrics:
V1
My body’s tired
My brain is torn
Shattered
From too much war
My mind is weary
From what I’ve seen
No peace time here for me
No place to go where the grass is green
Chorus
All gave some
Some gave all
Those words were written on the wall
The price we paid to be free
To Be Free
V2
Our country’s brave and proud
That’s what we must be
So I can stop fighting
this war on liberty
I love my country
And what it stands for
I love the people
That I fought for
Chorus
All gave some
Some gave all
Those words were written on the wall
The price we paid to be free
To be fee
Post-Chorus
To protect and serve
Is what I chose to do
Like those before me
Who chose it too
Chorus
All gave some
Some gave all
Those words were written on the wall
The price we paid to be free
To be free
Refrain
The price we paid to be free
The price we paid to be free

And what she stands for
