[Intro]

Verse 1
0:14
Bend down slow in the morning rain,
0:14
Gather soil where the heroes lay.
0:18
Across this land from coast to coast,
0:21
I’ve walked beside the silent ghosts.
0:24
Every handful carries time,
0:28
Echoes carved in battle lines.
0:32
Each small grain a sacred trust—
0:35
A nation’s heartbeat in this dust.
0:38
Chorus
0:42
Dead soldiers can’t hurt me,
0:42
They guard the land I roam.
0:46
Their silence gives me courage,
0:49
Their sacrifice my own.
0:53
The world is full of sorrow,
0:56
But their spirit comforts me—
0:59
Dead soldiers can’t hurt me.
1:03
Verse 2
1:13
From the frozen north to the southern shore,
1:13
I’ve gathered soil they bled for before.
1:16
Every state, every sacred ground,
1:20
Where valor sleeps without a sound.
1:23
From desert heat to the ocean wind,
1:26
I feel their strength beneath my skin.
1:30
I carry freedom in my hands—
1:33
Fallen warriors of every land.
1:37
Pre-Chorus
1:40
And when the night grows heavy,
1:40
When fear begins to rise—
1:44
I think of all they carried,
1:47
And it steadies my mind.
1:52
Chorus
1:58
Dead soldiers can’t hurt me,
1:58
They guard the land I roam.
2:01
Their silence gives me courage,
2:04
Their sacrifice my own.
2:08
The world is full of sorrow,
2:11
But their spirit comforts me—
2:15
Dead soldiers can’t hurt me.
2:18
Bridge
2:39
(soaring, emotional)
2:39
Nations cry, the earth still bleeds,
2:39
But I hold the weight of their deeds.
2:45
I’ve walked the hills where heroes sleep,
2:52
Brought back the soil their memories keep.
2:55
Through the storms, through the scars,
2:59
Their bravery lights my darkest hours.
3:02
Though my heart may break in two,
3:06
I’ll stand tall because they once stood too.
3:09
Final Chorus (powerful, resolute)
3:12
Dead soldiers can’t hurt me,
3:18
They lift me when I fall.
3:22
Their courage runs within me,
3:25
The greatest gift of all.
3:29
I walk with their spirit,
3:32
Wherever life may lead—
3:35
Dead soldiers can’t hurt me…
3:39
Their sacrifice lives in me.Fifty states, one nation’s plea—
3:52
Freedom lives because of the free.
3:59
And in the soil I’ve gathered here,
4:02
Their silent strength is always near.
