	Story Behind the Song Soldiers Live, like many others ofits genre, was written in late September of 2001 and recorded in January of 2002. The overwhelming emotion produced by the attacks mirrored the feel that I had wanted for the piece from the very beginning, but had lacked the inspiration. Lyrics My brother's not coming home tonight he charged through the darkness to fight the good fight he stood on a wall to protect us from harm and now my brother's gone My brother's not coming home again he swore an oath to serve and defend guardian angels with wings dipped in blood and now his work is done After today, every fight's in your name After today, things'll never be the same My brother fell and I survived soldiers live, and wonder why My brother faced the darkness calling his sword a fence to evil's will none would aid his comrades falling to the ground where they lay still My brother purchased safety for us the coin he used has stained the grass and still they laugh at those who ride heedless again of those who passed After today, every fight's in your name After today, things'll never be the same why should we live and our bothers die soldiers live, and wonder why Your wife and your children wept at my feet when I brought them the word I swear to you they'll never be alone this family takes care of its own My brother took my place in line He pulled me from eternity’s door He boldly strode through in my place To his fallen comrades’ embrace After Today, every breath is for you After today, my every step is towards you Your name will be my battle cry soldiers live, and soldiers die.
