A Warriors Life

Steel in my spine dust in my veins
Every scar a badge no room for pain
Shadows stretch long across the sand
I’ve danced with the reaper
Looked him in the eye
Not today not tonight
I laugh at death
I should’ve died
But I’m still here
I have to laugh
To override my mind
I Run back in no fear
Civilians will never understand
Boots in the mud blood on my hands
For my brother my sister
I’ll make my stand
The wind carries cries like ghosts in the air
I’ve kissed the void
Felt the cold bite
I've taken another's life
To protect my country
Am I right
Am I wrong 
If I live I laugh
I laugh at death
I should’ve died
But I’m still here
I laugh at death
Run back in no fear
My humor is dark
Because I see death different
Civilians won't understand 
I laugh at death
I should’ve died
But I’m still here
There's no room for pain
No time to stop
I'll sleep in Valhalla
The warriors heaven
God won't let me in
Another life I've taken
My brothers my sisters
We'll celebrate together
For now I've a job to do
And I laugh at death
I’ve danced with the reaper
Looked him in the eye
Not today not tonight
I laugh at death
I should’ve died
But I’m still here
