I am a soldier, trained and conditioned   Served my time but I didn't choose this mission   Fightin' war, I think I'm the only solider for the lonely      I have been wounded under fire   But it's not deterred or weakened my desire   To defend them 'cause I'm the only solider for the lonely      For every heart that's been broken   For every kind word left unspoken   Every promise not remembered   I'll not forget, I'll not surrender   'Cause I'm the only soldier for the lonely      Here in the trenches, no sanctuary   Nights are long and solitary   Nobody holds me 'cause I'm the only soldier for the lonely      For every heart that's been broken   For every kind word left unspoken   Every promise not remembered   I'll not forget, I'll not surrender   'Cause I'm the only soldier for the lonely      I'll plant a rose, I'll shed a tear   I'll die alone, no one to hear   My battle cry 'cause I'm the only soldier for the lonely   I'm the only soldier for the lonely
