Little soldier, the last of your kind so you say in your secluded mind All the powers that put you to war now shoot at you; who do you fight for? Little soldier, you saved many lives who turn on you with guilt-colored knives Bar your windows and seal up your gate Hide unharmed in your fortress of hate You saw a comrade down on his knees Offered asylum and the shade of trees Now your forest is red with fire Do you blame him or just your own desire? Little soldier, one thing you should know Not every one you strike is a foe Firing missles at targets so small My dear soldier, you're killing us all Blindly flinging unwanted loads you bite your lip and the whole ground explodes Price of your words has long been lost amongst the victims of your holocaust Little soldier, I hope you find peace even if I won't see your release Claim allegiance is naught but a lie then, dear soldier, all your allies die
