Still Point
Scars on my hand and my feet
Scars on my heart no one's seen
Fought for hearth and home since I was young and lean
But these hands of mine may never be clean
And I'll lay down my sword and be a
soldier no more
I'm taking off these boots caked with dust
Taking off my armor--let it rust
After everything I've seen
Gonna rest a while beside the coolest stream
And I'll lay down my sword and be a
soldier no more
Maybe there is still a chance that I can be redeemed
Maybe I can still become the man I set out to be
I'm still trying to find my still point in this turning world
When I make it home, keep your banners furled
Save your celebrations, you won't need your pearls
Will you still remember who I used to be
All I want is a quiet life of peace
And I'll lay down my sword and be a
soldier no more
Maybe there is still a chance that I can be redeemed
Maybe I can still become the man I set out to be
I'm still trying to find my still point in this turning world
Scars on my heart no one's seen
Fought for hearth and home since I was young and lean
But these hands of mine may never be clean
And I'll lay down my sword and be a
soldier no more
I'm taking off these boots caked with dust
Taking off my armor--let it rust
After everything I've seen
Gonna rest a while beside the coolest stream
And I'll lay down my sword and be a
soldier no more
Maybe there is still a chance that I can be redeemed
Maybe I can still become the man I set out to be
I'm still trying to find my still point in this turning world
When I make it home, keep your banners furled
Save your celebrations, you won't need your pearls
Will you still remember who I used to be
All I want is a quiet life of peace
And I'll lay down my sword and be a
soldier no more
Maybe there is still a chance that I can be redeemed
Maybe I can still become the man I set out to be
I'm still trying to find my still point in this turning world
