The crashing and yelling
Have been filling your head for so long
With every sunrise
You're wishing you could go back home
I know
The battle is raging
I know
The battle is long
You cry
But all you hear is a whisper
You'd stand
But you'd just fall back down
Hold on
Beautiful soldier
You've come
Too far to give in
Be strong
Beautiful soldier
Hold on
Until the battle is won.
The enemy fire
Is flying from all around
And you don't understand
How a vict'ry will ever be found
Never
Have you been so tired
Never
Have you been so afraid
You can't
See where you're going
You've tried
But it's so hard to breathe.
Hold on
Beautiful soldier
You've come
Too far to give in
Be strong
Beautiful soldier
Hold on
Until the battle is won.
I know
You're feeling alone now
I know
It's so hard to see
But stand tall
And they will not defeat you
The fight
Will make you who you will be.
Hold on
Beautiful soldier
You've come
Too far to give in
Be strong
Beautiful soldier
Hold on
Until the battle is won.
Fight on
Beautiful soldier
You don't
Need to give in
Stand tall
Beautiful soldier
Fight on
Until your battle is won.
Fight on
Be strong
Stand tall
Beautiful soldier
Have been filling your head for so long
With every sunrise
You're wishing you could go back home
I know
The battle is raging
I know
The battle is long
You cry
But all you hear is a whisper
You'd stand
But you'd just fall back down
Hold on
Beautiful soldier
You've come
Too far to give in
Be strong

Hold on

Author notes
I wasn't sure if this was what you were going for but thank you very much... I've been meaning to write a song by this name for a looooong time but I just never had the inspiration. The title isn't original, I confess... I read an article by the same name and I really liked the title so I used it. Anyway...
Be strong, beautiful soldier.
