"Soldier Of Heaven" lyrics

"Soldier Of Heaven"

I won't be coming home
I won't be going anywhere
I will guard this post forever
Here on the alpine slope, where I did my final stand I shall remain
Among the ice and snow that binds me to this mountain

A force of nature too strong, sent from above
Where spirits lead the way, the winds will never fade

White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven

I saw the end of war
I watched the soldiers come and go
And I kept my watch forever
So many brave men fell in the battles that were raging down below
I have seen it all but none will hear my story
All of these years I have been frozen in time
I cried for spring to come but here, winter remain

White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven

I always dreamed that I would, serve high above
Where spirits lead the way, the winds will never fade

White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven

White Friday, I'll take the
Stairway to heaven
I'm sky high, when I die
I'll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won't return to
Blood mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven

"Soldier Of Heaven" is the second single from Sabaton's tenth studio album, "The War To End All Wars". The song was premiered on January 7, 2022, accompanied by a music video.
This song was inspired by the so-called "White Friday" in December of 1916, when a series of avalanches buried approximately up to 10'000 people (soldiers of Italian and Austro-Hungarian troops and civilians) on Mount Marmolada and Mount Col di Lana (Blood Mountain) on the Italian Front of World War I.
The band's official website stated about this track, "High above in the Alps close to heaven, in the most extreme circumstances, men fought and protected the borders during WWI. 'Soldier of Heaven' tells the story of those brave soldiers who froze to death, whose bodies still remain under the snow... till today."
