Lyrics: (Romanized Russian)
I'm a soldier, znachit ya
I otvyetchik i sud'ya
Ya stoyu na dvukh kontsakh ognya
Ogibaya virazhi, obgonyaya smyert' i zhizn'
Ya byegu srazit'sya s tyen'yu lzhi
skol'ko b nityey nye plyol obman
pokazhyet lik svyeta istina
Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall
I'm a soldier, born to stand
in this waking hell I am
witnessing more than I can compute
pray myself we don't forget
lies, betrayed and the oppressed
please give me the strength to be the truth
people facing the fire together
if we don't, we'll lose all we have found
Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall
Za myechtoyu nakray propasti
Lish' tol'ko tak mozhno mir spasti
Ty nye plach',
Slyozy spryach',
Ved' nastanyet novyy den'
Tvoy ogon'
Sogryevat'
Budyet tysyachi syerdets
A syeychas podnimis'
Spryach' poglubgye bol' i strakh
Pobyedit tot, kto prav
Znay, chto vsyo v tvoikh rukakh
Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we're now soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall
Translation:
I'm a soldier meaning that I am
Both the defendant and the judge
I'm standing on both sides of the fire
Going around turns, overtaking death and life
I'm running to fight against the shadows of a lie
No matter how many threads deception would weave
Truth will show its face of light
Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgment day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
I'm a soldier, born to stand
In this waking hell I am
Witnessing more than I can compute
Pray myself we don't forget
Lies, betrayed and the oppressed
Please give me the strength to be the truth
People facing the fire together
If we don't, we'll lose all we have found
Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
After a dream to the edge of a chasm
Only that way can the world be saved
Do not cry
Hide the tears
Because a new day will come
Your fire
Will warm
Thousands of hearts
But now rise
Hide the deep pain and fear
The one who is right will win
Know that everything is in your hands
Save your tears
For the day
When our pain is far behind
On your feet
Come with me
We are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
Take your place
Save them for the judgement day
Fast and free
Follow me
Time to make the sacrifice
We rise or fall
